The backstory of this post is I had the same problem for several weeks. My queue was at 140000. The only "solution" is blocking Lemmy completely.

I think @Montag had the same problem and if I remember correctly, he also had to disconnect from different instances.

Yes, I have temporarily blocked a few large Lemmy and kbin instances. Additionally, I disabled everything in the admin panel in the "Automatically create a contact directory" section. And I'm starting to think that was the key point.

I have most of it disabled too. When I lifted the ban for Lemmy (via fail2ban/iptables) the system load went up from around 6 to 15 and my queue exploded again.

I think there are a lot of users and a lot of activities on Lemmy that a node has to process.

I could be wrong about the cause but since I re-established the Lemmy ban everything is completely smooth again.
