I did, and all I see is someone spinning some numbers idly, like, hey, if I can lay 1 brick every second, then with 20000 people we can build a house in one second! So good!
a) entirely and totally lacking in experience running a heavy load website.
b) 50 requests a minute is so atrociously bad, it’s not even worth talking about.
c) there isnt any db load going on here, this is a full page single table query. See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/contrib/flatpages/
Sure maybe a db exists, but it’s not relevant when you compare this to the complexity of doing write operations.
Ie. this is some hiiiigh level arm chair commentary right here.
Sure, they’re just talking about their website, but anyone going “oh yeah, look at this, those mangadex guys should learn a thing or two and run it on django”. …has no idea what they’re talking about.
