Lemmy Server Performance

lemmy_server uses the Diesel ORM that automatically generates SQL statements. There are serious performance problems in June and July 2023 preventing Lemmy from scaling. Topics include caching, PostgreSQL extensions for troubleshooting, Client/Server Code/SQL Data/server operator apps/sever operator API (performance and storage monitoring), etc.

A general description of the proposed change and reasoning behind it is on GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3697

Linear execution of these massive changes to votes/comments/posts with concurrency awareness. Also adds a layer of social awareness, the impact on a community when a bunch of content is black-holed.

An entire site federation delete / dead server - also would fall under this umbrella of mass data change with a potential for new content ownership/etc.

I think the true / 't' thing is just postgres and how it handles boolean fields.

If they're not all boolean, then yes we should fix.
