What part of your process is the bottle neck? Are you rendering the posters server side?

From the page...

    [...] because I'm rendering actual JPGs server-side so that the prints will be identical to the previews. I could probably do it much faster if I did it all client-side with SVGs, but I went with what I already knew. Maybe v2.0 will be more awesome.

Turns out every part of my process is the bottleneck, ha.

I'm fetching the user's history from GH, which is working OK at best right now, and also rendering them server side.

So... 0 for 2.

That's okay though. Only way to learn is by getting something out there. You're way ahead of the game compared to most people dealing with scaling issues first hand :)

Keep up the good work!

lambda would be a good way of scaling this without improving the architecture otherwise :)
