Software Engineer building Talent Protocol

Just a quick update - we’ve seen that the Talent Passport performance was a bit degraded and @rubendinis spent some time looking into it. Here’s what we noticed and what we changed. We’ve been actively redux’ing our old apps, and after EthCC we took down the Playground App. 

We also started to tracking the API usage and requiring API keys to make requests. This usage tracking system was a bit naive and made our Redis cache crash multiple times. We’ve since changed how this works and that should make the system a lot more resilient. During this investigation we also took the opportunity to improve a bit the indexes that are used in our search endpoint (which is the most costly endpoint) and we saw a huge increase in throughput when we changed from BTREE indexes to GIN indexes.
