+Added documentation for optimizing Funkwhale and reduce its memory

+
+Changelog
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+For non-docker deployments, add ``--proxy-headers`` at the end of the ``daphne``
+command in :file:`/etc/systemd/system/funkwhale-server.service`.
+
+This will ensure the application receive the correct IP address from the client
+and not the proxy's one.

+Optimizing your Funkwhale instance
+==================================
+
+Depending on your requirements, you may want to reduce as much as possible
+Funkwhale's footprint.
+
+Reduce workers concurrency
+--------------------------
+
+Asynchronous tasks are handled by a celery worker, which will by default
+spawn a worker process per CPU available. This can lead to a higher
+memory usage.
+
+You can control this behaviour using the ``--concurrency`` flag.
+For instance, setting ``--concurrency=1`` will spawn only one worker.
+
+This flag should be appended after the ``celery -A funkwhale_api.taskapp worker``
+command in your :file:`docker-compose.yml` file if your using Docker, or in your
+:file:`/etc/systemd/system/funkwhale-worker.service` otherwise.
+
+.. note::
+
+    Reducing concurrency comes at a cost: asynchronous tasks will be processed
+    more slowly. However, on small instances, this should not be an issue.
+
+
+Switch from prefork to solo pool
+--------------------------------
+
+Using a different pool implementation for Celery tasks may also help.
+
+Using the ``solo`` pool type should reduce your memory consumption.
+You can control this behaviour using the ``--pool=solo`` flag.
+
+This flag should be appended after the ``celery -A funkwhale_api.taskapp worker``
+command in your :file:`docker-compose.yml` file if your using Docker, or in your
+:file:`/etc/systemd/system/funkwhale-worker.service` otherwise.
