I think the issue is not with the WoT, although it might be a little bit of that too. But with the fact that it opens a bunch of connections to a bunch of relays and keeps those open ingesting tons of events every second. It's like a big Primal server on its own, and maybe my libraries are not very well-optimized for that.
I think that approach is bad and shouldn't be encouraged. What is the size of the database? Must be huge at this point.
Do you really want to ingest millions of events from people who don't even know your relay exists? If not, then I may offer you an alternative solution.
If yes, then I can think of some changes that would save some CPU, but I don't want to work on that and there are probably better solutions out there built by robots.
