Hi, Have you ever fixed this problem? I am finding it very very hard to handle high load websites, also using postgres. I think the bottle neck is the DB layer as even using the admin tool causes timeout issues. Last night I had 2.3k concurrent users for 5 hours which caused one of the servers CPU to hit 175% (VPN Node) and another to hit 235%. I am going to completely rewrite all my models into modules to see if it helps. However if that doesn't work I am not sure what else to try.
