slow queries (using indexes)
I'm experiencing slow queries (I only use
.withIndex()
queries) and mutations
The only thing I can think of is that this might be due to the location of convex servers that from what I can gather are located US east coast. Are you planning to have europe servers as well?
At the moment I'm working with optimistic updates but in general I feel performance is a bit sluggish

@marnec hi! how are things now
wow now response times are much faster! what happened?

Last night, we got a surge of new traffic on one database cluster. That temporarily slowed that cluster down until we scaled everything up. I’m guessing you were on the affected cluster.
@Jamie Hi Jamie! What performance can I expect from Europe? I want my app to be snappy and are wondering whether Convex is the right tech. (I don’t want to selfhost right now) thank you 🙂
hey! pretty similar to other us-east based services. the service from europe is ~80-90ms round trip or so. the folks who have it the toughest right now are southern asia and australia...
