Jun 27, 2026, 11:22 PMA site that big runs on only three servers?? I'm impressed!
I mean, I knew #Forgejo was efficient—I run an instance myself—but I didn't know it was *that* efficient.

I'm running it on an N200 for me and my friends and it had less problems than many other services takes up almost nothing of the limited resources and still serves pages real fast; it is really just well optimised (and not written in JS :neocat: )- ARGVMI~1.PIFargv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.orgJun 28, 2026, 7:07 AM
What's an N200? The Intel CPU?

Yes, it pulls like nothing in terms of power which is why I wanted a NUC with it for my little homelab so it doesn't get to expensive. - ARGVMI~1.PIFargv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.orgJun 28, 2026, 7:18 AM
Neat, so, like a laptop CPU?

Yes it isn't socketet, but it is much slower than most laptop CPUs but also more power efficient. It is basically what a Raspberry Pi with x86 would be; performance wise somewhere between a Pi and an average laptop processor. It just pulls like ~4W in my config + some watts for SSD und HDD as well as Mainboard and USB stuff totalling 11W with a peak of like 14W.
The N200 only has like 4 cores with each a single thread but that is fine as long as I don't compile anything on it and for Forgejo I just get the precompiled binaries :3
