why is Nextcloud so slow? (forum.bruvland.com)

I have setup so many instances over the months on different servers and the web ui always takes 40s to a minute to load per page I have always used redis for caching and the best methods even the aio docker image(s) are really slow.

kind of just been living with it for the past month or so but its really annoying when others are saying theirs takes seconds to load.

edit: totally didn’t forget to include a body

I've experienced the same, even the hosted/paid instances Nextcloud recommends are very slow.

I think it's just not built to be fast.

Same here,it tried running it on a vps, i tried it as the only program running on a 32GB ram operton server, now i'm running it inside Docker with Redis and all the recommended optimizations, no apps installed . As slow as always.

Nextcloud is like Windows 98, when you install it it's fast, then as you add data to it it gets expotentially slower.

I'm moving most data to Syncthing, gave up on the Files part of Nextcloud.

Syncthing is what I use as well, it's very fast and I've been using it for over a year now with no issues.

I've actually had nextcloud nuke my data once before too, they had a bug that reset the created/mod time of every file to something like 01/01/1000 and completely broke everything, I had to restore from a backup.

Truly a great piece of software

On my server it's way much faster than WordPress (ok, being faster than the most bloated CMS is not that hard...)
