Beforehand we disabled HTTP keepalives to prevent ambient system
resources from being used by excess idle connections. Now that we've
fixed some bugs in the federation API and device list updater, this
situation is now much better and we don't open so many remote
connections anyway.
Keepalives allow us to not have to handshake TLS so often (which is
quite expensive) and reusing an idle connection is much faster than
having to open a new one. This can help with response times when talking
to remote federated servers.
This PR also adds a new option to disable keepalives if needed:
```
# Disable HTTP keepalives, which also prevents connection reuse. Dendrite will typically
# keep HTTP connections open to remote hosts for 5 minutes as they can be reused much
# more quickly than opening new connections each time. Disabling keepalives will close
# HTTP connections immediately after a successful request but may result in more CPU and
# memory being used on TLS handshakes for each new connection instead.
disable_http_keepalives: false
```
This adds the main component of the fulltext search.
This PR doesn't do anything yet, besides creating an empty fulltextindex
folder if enabled. Indexing events is done in a separate PR.
This PR refactors the app services component. It makes the following changes:
* Each appservice now gets its own NATS JetStream consumer
* The appservice database is now removed entirely, since we just use JetStream as a data source instead
* The entire component is now much simpler and we deleted lots of lines of code 💅
The result is that it should be much lighter and hopefully much more performant.
* Try Ristretto cache
* Tweak
* It's beautiful
* Update GMSL
* More strict keyable interface
* Fix that some more
* Make less panicky
* Don't enforce mutability checks for now
* Determine mutability using deep equality
* Tweaks
* Namespace keys
* Make federation caches mutable
* Update cost estimation, add metric
* Update GMSL
* Estimate cost for metrics better
* Reduce counters a bit
* Try caching events
* Some guards
* Try again
* Try this
* Use separate caches for hopefully better hash distribution
* Fix bug with admitting events into cache
* Try to fix bugs
* Check nil
* Try that again
* Preserve order jeezo this is messy
* thanks VS Code for doing exactly the wrong thing
* Try this again
* Be more specific
* aaaaargh
* One more time
* That might be better
* Stronger sorting
* Cache expiries, async publishing of EDUs
* Put it back
* Use a shared cache again
* Cost estimation fixes
* Update ristretto
* Reduce counters a bit
* Clean up a bit
* Update GMSL
* 1GB
* Configurable cache sizees
* Tweaks
* Add `config.DataUnit` for specifying friendly cache sizes
* Various tweaks
* Update GMSL
* Add back some lazy loading caching
* Include key in cost
* Include key in cost
* Tweak max age handling, config key name
* Only register prometheus metrics if requested
* Review comments @S7evinK
* Don't return errors when creating caches (it is better just to crash since otherwise we'll `nil`-pointer exception everywhere)
* Review comments
* Update sample configs
* Update GHA Workflow
* Update Complement images to Go 1.18
* Remove the cache test from the federation API as we no longer guarantee immediate cache admission
* Don't check the caches in the renewal test
* Possibly fix the upgrade tests
* Update to matrix-org/gomatrixserverlib#322
* Update documentation to refer to Go 1.18
* Rate limiting changes
This makes the following changes:
* For logged in users, the rate limiting now applies to the device session rather than the remote IP address;
* For non-logged in users, the rate limiting continues to apply to remote address as it does today;
* It is now possible to add user IDs to the `exempt_user_ids` option under `rate_limiting` to exclude bots from rate limiting;
* Admin and appservice users are now exempt from rate limiting by default.
* Fix build with media API
