Screenshots
context: our users need to be authenticated to view our products.
We receive a lots of request on the authenticate endpoint, and we have a bottleneck on this endpoint.
When we have too much traffic, we have locks on the ‘user’ table
Here is the request
UPDATE "user" SET "lastLogin" = $1, "updatedAt" = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP WHERE "id" IN ($2)
This query is not useful for us. This PR proposes a solution to deactivate it and avoid a lock on the user table.
In terms of volume, this represents more than 250k updates of the lastLogin field per day, often at the same connection time.
Not sure where to write the tests, please let me know.
