Also a little insight as to what hardware they run:

“bottleneck has always been the database which at the moment is doing up to 15k queries per second. It's running on a dedicated hardware (8c/16t Xeon E-2288G) and the bottleneck is CPU-bound rather than memory or IO. It's already the fastest the hosting provider can offer so we can't really upgrade vertically. We also run dedicated instances of memcached for caching at various level of granularity, and redis for write-heavy operations”

That's the fastest CPU their hosting provider offers??? Any competent host will offer AMD EPYC dedi boxes with shitloads more cores - maybe not worth it for the 2-3 days a year when database use spikes, but yeah
