Sind User Sessions unter Python Web Frameworks wie Flask und FastAPI wirklich so beschissen, oder bilde ich mir das nur ein? Entweder es werden Session-Daten Client-seitig (signiert) in Cookies bzw. JWT gespeichert, oder die Server-seitigen Implementierungen brauchen aufgeblähte Datenbanken :(

speaking of Sentry: y'all might want to add a "werkzeug!=3.1.7" pin if you run Werkzeug (maybe via Flask) in a cluster with weird hostnames:
github.com/pallets/werkzeug/is

3.1.7 version introduces a BC break in host validation · Issue #3141 · pallets/werkzeug
A feature to validate host http header no matter what introduces backwards compatibility break. The bug presents itself by regarding the host invalid (false-positive) A host like 069ef83c8f81497b8e...

The rewrite of the Sisyphus server continues, I've got all of the GET endpoints and about 60% of all the endpoints finished overall. Some initial testing on the `/workers` and `/queue` endpoints show some worrying results from the old version and some great results from the new version. The `/workers` endpoint started throwing errors at about 800 RPS on the Python/Flask version (the old one), the rewrite is showing around 4800 RPS (Golang/Gin). The `/queue` endpoint doesn't show a…

So, decided to get them rookie `/queue` numbers up so did a quick bit of caching. For a 12-job queue, I went from 240 RPS (Python/Flask) to 680 (Golang/Gin) then to 3400 RPS with some proper caching. The `/workers` endpoint would benefit as well, but I think its performant enough though I may end up adding a bit of caching later.

The old endpoint (left) versus the new endpoint (right). What's more, the rewritten endpoint still had headroom resource-wise on the VM whereas the old one had maxed out the VM's CPU.
