That's of course true for the massive rooms, such as #matrix:matrix.org, but if there are enough 1:1 conversations to contribute significantly to the overloadedness of matrix.org splitting the servers up and 'randomly' assigning a server to users would decrease the load.
That's a number of 'ifs' there, though.
- Arathorn 8y agoThe problem is that the 1:1 conversations are a negligible weight relative to the massive 15,000 user rooms like #matrix:matrix.org - and spreading those 15,000 users over 15,000 servers rather than 1000 is going to just swap a client<->server API overload problem with an server<->server API overload...
- driminicus 8y agoFair enough, that's also why I included: "but if there are enough 1:1 conversations to contribute significantly to the overloadedness of matrix.org" Matrix.org is still running, so no complaints there. You'll figure things out soon enough.
