I’m writing to seek assistance regarding the high average load (> 3) on my project. The high load occurred right after I ran flyctl deploy. I’m experiencing issues with running deployed scripts, specifically the portion of the script that uses Puppeteer for web scraping. Currently, I realised that Puppeteer is unable to launch the site, and I suspect this might be related to the high load on the server.
Additionally, the load has been increasing from 3+ all the way to 12+ over the past few hours even though there weren’t any interactions with scripts.
Could you please help me understand the possible causes of this high load? I would also appreciate any insights into key factors that could contribute to an increased load on the server.
Additionally, I am looking for advice on how to alleviate this situation to ensure that Puppeteer can run smoothly. Here are some specific points I’d like to address:
- What might be causing the high load after deployment?
- Are there any best practices or recommendations to reduce the load and improve Puppeteer’s performance?
