Poor performance
I've migrated a project from heroku's basic dyno (capped at 500Mb RAM) to railway and I saw a great difference in performance.
Is this to be expected?

Unfortunately yes because of the region, Us-West only. Where was your dyno located before?
heroku doesnt give option. I believe their location is us-east-1
Yep, I am going to tag in @char8 just for this records when he is awake. But I think it will be that + our proxy.
Are you in Argentina?
I'm on argentina, yes
Yep, US-East would be faster
My users are mostly on argentina and brasil, also europe
Gotcha, yep, US-East would solve most of your issues. But a BR region would be best.
The shot-term solution would be setting up cloudflare for the CDN.
The site is not heavy on assets, don't know if CDN would solve much
ok, i've rolled back to heroku. I'll try again this projects migration when regions are available.
other projects I migrated didn't seem to receive such an impact
It could have been the host.
Can you trigger a redeploy?
Really curious to see the latency behavior.
Sure, I'm redeploying now
(ruby deploy time is above 10 minutes 👀)
still a big difference in response time between the heroku host and the railway host.
Alright, just what we needed. You can tear it down, in the meantime, I will wait for Charith to report back on what may be the cause for this.
thanks!
