March 24, 20179 yr Hi, I've installed unRAID on a hetzner hosted storage box by having them install a 16Gb USB key onto the server and then me installing unRAID through an Ubuntu LiveCD . I want to use it as a general cloud media server etc. Install went fine, but Ive found the interface is really laggy - taking 10 - 20secs between changing interface options. I've checked everything I can think of, memory looks fine, top shows totally idle CPU, did a bunch of disk tests on the USB key. If I install some docker containers they all seem to run fine, nice and fast interfaces so its only the unRAID control panel that is running slow. I'm a bit out of ideas - my instinct is the USB key but doing some disk read tests it was solid. Also rolled back to 6.3.2 no difference. Any ideas on where to go from here in diagnosing the issue? I'm considering wiping the USB key with a full format and trying again but its quite a lot of effort to do that! Thanks.

I was sure to enable the firewall for access from my IP address only.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Thanks for the reply. Diagnostics enclosed. I've installed a few docker containers - but otherwise its pretty clean server still. From the very outset the unRAID UI was sluggish - docker containers are not however. I use unRAID at home, this is my first go at a remote unRAID server. Thanks.

March 30, 20179 yr I hope you live in China (223.99.60.42) and simply can't remember your password, as hundreds of attempts to log in. You don't want a public IP for your server... ever... (or directly open it up to the internet by having ports forwarded without utilizing a reverse proxy or vpn) Those attempts, and this (you can search this here) are probably the reasons for the sluggishness Mar 23 21:38:15 Tower emhttp: err: handleRequest: getpeername: Transport endpoint is not connected Edited March 30, 20179 yr by Squid

I'd already changed all the passwords and then locked down the SSH port again as I was building the server while mobile so my IP was changing. I might move the unRAID port to non-port 80 and see if that helps - perhaps the authentication page is being hammered with scripts trying to login? Thanks for looking at diags.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Firewalled off Port 80 to the single IP I'm using (hard as I'm not on a fixed connection) and its much better. Must be being hammered with login requests Thanks China.
