Hello everyone! 😊

I recently set up a NodeBB forum on a shared hosting server, but I’m noticing some performance issues, especially when multiple users are online. The forum sometimes loads slowly, and there are occasional delays in real-time updates.

Here’s my current setup:

Hosting: Shared hosting (supports Node.js) Database: MongoDB Plugins Installed: Basic plugins like Markdown and Emoji Traffic: Currently low, but expected to grow I’d love to hear your recommendations on:

Optimizing NodeBB for better speed and efficiency on shared hosting. Best caching methods to reduce server load. Any essential plugins or configurations to improve performance. I appreciate any insights or suggestions from the community. Thanks in advance! 😊
