I've been running the 0.18 docker build since it was released. Just took a look and it's CPU usage has remained <3% on load since the release. Admittedly my instance has only a handful of users, but it might be worth upgrading to 0.18?

Yeah, my instance doesn't have a lot of users, but it does have a lot of posts (few thousand per day). It might be all the updates it's sending out.
I guess I'll just have to give 0.18 a try then.
I’d give it a try. I read there were federation issues between 0.18 instances and those <0.18. Might be linked to that.
I restart my lemmy container once an hour.I saw the lemmy.world admin say that's what he was doing back whenever the new sort algos came out. I still have mine doing that. @ruud@lemmy.world
Me too..
Can't say I see this issue on 0.18.
I can only speak to my instance but I'm not seeing anywhere near that amount of utilization. I am on 0.18.1.
I switched to 18.1 this weekend, and the cpu is basically bored now ;)
That's good :D
Sorry, I cannot find the comment now , one of the Android app developers responded to a 'my phone is getting hot' comment that caching was the problem. Perhaps this is related?
I think that's more of a client issue than a server issue though.
