Hello frenpais! Well, I've finally done it! The superfriends public #relay has just migrated from nostr-rs-relay over to strfry! 😼🔥
We have migrated all event data over as well, so if you were using the superfriends relay before, your data should still all be here. Everything should work exactly as it did, except much more performant! This means feeds load much faster, events read/write much faster, and less error-prone.
As always, anyone is welcome to use it: wss://nostr.superfriends.online
nostr-rs-relay has been fantastic over the years, but the backend on sqlite3 was a major bottleneck for public relays. Even with loads of fine-tuning, there is only so much you can do with sqlite3, particularly if hosting a public relay (I think it's great for private/small relays!)
I like that strfry uses LMDB which is much faster and scalable. It also is more actively maintained and has some great tooling built in for plugins and extensibility.
If you have any problems, please let me know.
Enjoy! 😻💾

Good news, superfriends #nostr #relay enjoyooors! Santa's come early this year! 😻🎅
I bit the bullet and deployed a brand new server with lots of extra CPU cores, loads of RAM, solid state NVMe and the works.
I've migrated the superfriends relay plus my filtering proxy over to the new box, maintaining all your data. It is *much* less error-prone now, and service is much faster!
Anyone is welcome to use it, most standard NIPs are supported. Enjoy!
