-# Managing GtS on slow hardware
-
-While GoToSocial runs great on lower-end hardware, some operations are not practical on it, especially
-instances with the database on slow storage (think anything that is not an SSD).  This document
-offers some suggestions on how to work around common issues when running GtS on slow hardware.
-
-## Running database migrations on a different machine
-
-Sometimes a database migration will need to do operations that are taxing on the database's storage.
-These operations can take days if the database resides on a hard disk or SD card. If your
-database is on slow storage, it can save a lot of time to follow the following procedure:
-
-!!! danger
-
-    It might seem tempting to keep GtS running while you run the migrations on another machine, but
-    doing this will lead to all the posts that are received during the migration post disappearing
-    once the migrated database is re-imported.
-
- 1. Shut down GtS
- 2. Take a [backup](backup_and_restore.md#what-to-backup-database) of the database
- 3. Import the database on faster hardware
- 4. Run the GtS migration on the faster hardware
- 5. Take a backup of the resultant database
- 6. Import the resultant backup and overwrite the old database
- 7. Start GtS with the new version
-
-### Running GtS migrations separately
-
-After you import the database on the faster hardware, you can run the migration without starting
-GtS by downloading the *target* GtS version from the [releases](https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases) page.
-For instance, if you are running `v0.19.2` and you want to upgrade to `v0.20.0-rc1`, download the
-latter version. Once you have the binary, set it to executable by running `chmod u+x /path/to/gotosocial`. Afterwards, copy the configuration of the original server, and alter
-it with the location of the new database. We copy the configuration in case variables like
-the hostname is used in the migration, we want to keep that consistent.
-Once everything is in place, you can run the migration like this:
-
-```sh
-$ /path/to/gotosocial --config-path /path/to/config migrations run
-```
-
-This will run all the migrations, just like GtS would if it was started normally. Once this is done
-you can copy the result to the original instance and start the new GtS version there as well, which
-will see that everything is migrated and that there's nothing to do except run as expected.
