+Stator
+~~~~~~
+
+Stator's new internal architecture allocates a worker thread and a database
+connection up to its concurrency value; this means it is a _lot_ more efficient
+for a given "concurrency" number than the old system and also uses a lot more
+database connections. We recommend you reduce your configuration values for
+these by 5-10x; if you didn't set them manually, then don't worry, we've
+reduced the default values by a similar amount.

 Takahē's background task processing system is called Stator, and it uses
 asynchronous Python to pack loads of tasks at once time into a single process.

 The only real limits Stator can hit are CPU and memory usage; if you see your
 Stator (worker) containers not using anywhere near all of their CPU or memory,
