Plugin Page Load Speed?

[TexasDave]

My WebUI plugin page takes some time to load and sometimes will not load at all. Is this because it is looking for plugin updates or is there another well known cause for this?

Thanks!

I'd guess its looking for updates. Shouldn't take long sometimes mine takes up to what I'd guess 10seconds, but it could be speed of your connection and the server its polling from. 

 

Sometimes the server its polling from could be slow or temporarily having some issues.

The automatic check for updates when you hit the page is because you've got Settings - Notification Settings set to check for updates to plugins.  Disabling that will cause the page to load immediately.

I now get something back - takes about 5-7 seconds - but that is better than it not coming back. Thanks!

Is this something that will be fixed at some point? Seem strange that having that check in notifications would affect the WebUI? It does not do that for Doclers?

Thanks again!

That behavior is by design.   But if you're using the auto update plugin to keep everything up to date, then having the OS check for updates is pointless

My plugins page takes 2 minutes to load. The Notifications page is set (by default, apparently) to Never Check for updates. Any ideas?
