Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.

Are they suffering DDOS attacks? They might need something like Cloudflare to combat this. Maybe some kind of reverse-proxy if the attack isn't super massive.

The current issue is actually an ongoing DB issue. It's not solely affecting LW.

Yes. My instance will sometime have unusual high load and it will overload the cpu unless restarted. 0.18.3 doesn't seems to fix it, and it only affect some instance but not all. It's hard to pinpoint what cause the loop to happen.
