    Really cool, the page is noticeably snappier. I'm wondering why they don't put the database on a network-attached block volume. DigitalOcean offers Volumes Block Storage, which is replicated across multiple hosts. Keeping SQLite there would allow the volume to be attached to a replacement Droplet rather than restoring from the latest nightly backup.
