 - I came across some interesting PostgreSQL tuning advice for SSDs: https://amplitude.engineering/how-a-single-postgresql-config-change-improved-slow-query-performance-by-50x-85593b8991b0
 - Apparently setting `random_page_cost` to 1 is "common" advice for systems running PostgreSQL on SSD (the default is 4)
 - So I deployed this on DSpace Test and will check the Munin PostgreSQL graphs in a few days to see if anything changes

+- It's too early to tell for sure, but after I made the `random_page_cost` change on DSpace Test's PostgreSQL yesterday the number of connections dropped drastically:

+- There have been other temporary drops before, but if I look at the past month and actually the whole year, the trend is that connections are four or five times higher on average:

+- I just realized that we're not logging access requests to other vhosts on CGSpace, so it's possible I have no idea that we're getting slammed at 4AM on another domain that we're just silently redirecting to cgspace.cgiar.org
+- I've enabled logging on the CGIAR Library on CGSpace so I can check to see if there are many requests there
+- In just a few seconds I already see a dozen requests from Googlebot (of course they get HTTP 301 redirects to cgspace.cgiar.org)
