okay what's in the actual physical machine right now is an Intel Core i5-9400 YES IT IS AN ANTIQUE

it was fine until mastodon started pulling in all replies. which is absolutely a feature i support but dang it is it making my federated wordpress blog hard CPU-bound

(it does at least have a decent cooler so is not _also_ overheating. temps are good.)

$200 on eBay gets me like 2 more cores and 10 more threads without having to change out anything else

maybe i should do that?

lot cheaper than new mb and new RAM

(it's not at all short on ram, this thing has acres of DDR4)

still an oof tho'
