masto admin here. my instances are also getting hammered from external traffic.

The annoying thing is, I don't think that masto has any good tools to check which instances are causing the traffic. Especially as it's getting rerouted through a relay in my case

I am seeing increase in pict-rs ram consumption although I'm basically alone in my instance. Any ideas what the reason could be? (edit: since around the same time I saw this stuff happening)
