Comment on How I accidentally slowed down my nextcloud instance for months
Moonrise2473@feddit.it 7 months agoYes, I got lots of lag due to WordPress using all the CPU time to elaborate the same page over and over again.
I could have wasted some days to setup a cache proxy and other stuff but for a website with 10 monthly visitors is overkill, is faster to block everyone else outside the target. If someone is visiting from Russia or China they have 120% a malicious intent in my case, so no need to serve content

Ahh - I see. That’s why I keep telling people “a raspberry pi is not a server”. :-)
As a self-hoster I would still recommend figuring out how to setup something as simple as any of the available WordPress plugins that do caching though. “Being lazy” and “Self-hosting” will end in tears.
