[[6.10.0-rc1] WebUI Sometimes Slow to Load/Unresponsive]

I did some more digging on my end and I think I have found the culprit, my VPN client. I'm using AirVPN with the eddie client.

 

Since you said it was a DNS lookup wait I started thinking about my VPN.

I'm quite certain that all of the HAR files I have provided have been with my VPN turned off. However after I wasn't having any issues this morning, I went and turned on my VPN and the slow loading was immediately present.

 

I guess that probably leaves two options:

I had my VPN on and didn't realize it and that is what has been causing issues. However that would beg the question why is FF slow to load and Chrome isn't when tested at the same time.

The other being that when I turn off my VPN something is erroring and leaving my network connection in an incorrect state, possibly using the wrong DNS server or something along that line.

 

In the eddie client, I was using the wintun driver option and have reverted back to the standard driver. I then turned off the VPN and the loading issue went away.

I'm going to keep an eye on it and see if the loading issue comes back and under what circumstances. But I guess for now I think I can focus on my VPN client being the root issue.

 

I'll update if I find out otherwise. Thanks for digging into the issue.

I tried it in safe mode yesterday and it had the same issue.

 

The weird thing is it doesn't always load slowly. This morning it has been fine, no issues with page loading slowly.

I have attached a HAR of that.

 

As for your questions.

 

I have a Asus RT-AC66U B1 router running the Asuswrt-Merlin firmware.

 

I have a pi-hole setup on a RaspberryPi connected to my router.

The pi-hole is advertised as the default DNS server, and I also have it set to forward any errant DNS requests to the pi-hole.

 

I did not have definition for apollo setup. But I just put an entry in the pi-hole for a local DNS record for "apollo" to its IP.

Finally got around to testing this out.

 

The issue persists using FF private mode.

I do not have the same issue using Chrome.

 

The same on my Linux laptop, FF is slow to load, Chrome is not.

 

In testing out Chrome, I have found the FF is slower on most pages, but I guess the dashboard and main were just what stood out to me most.

 

I have done the HAR recordings on the dashboard and main tab in both FF and Chrome and attached them.

 

I might try out a fresh FF profile to see if it is any of my FF extensions causing issues, but I have most of them disabled for my Unraid domain.

 

Edit: I tried FF in safe mode and still have the same issue.
