Thanks for the report.

Regrettably the log file is insufficient. I can see only 30s worth of logs. Can you please follow this guide on how to get more detailed logs so I can help further?

On top of the above I would strongly recommend to update teh settings via the UI - I can see you are missing the PIHOLE and DHCPLSS in the LOADED_PLUGINS list which will prevent you to ingest the pihole devices.

Just started fresh again. No extra plugins. Followed the process above of letting it settle, then logging in, follow the process to refresh, save the settings, then it's just loading the settings, and wants to spin and spin. I haven't even added any hosts. (My scans need to work on eth1, so it doesn't work out of the box, which is fine, I mention it just to say that it's not related to many hosts)

I let it finish loading settings and after several minutes it came up.. then I hit save again, and it's spinning again. It's been aobut 5 mins with me not specifically measuring. CPU around 20%, RAM about 50%, so not a resource issue. Ok.. finished loading, about 10 mins.

  • Could you post your docker compose?

Sorry, I don't use compose, it's all command line, which is above.
It's a synology DS920+ with 20GB RAM

OK, to wind back, could you please let me know what is currently the issue?

  1. What is the expected behavior?
  2. What is the observed behavior?
  3. Can you post screenshots of inconsistencies you experience?
  4. Can you ssh into the container, install htop apk add htop then run htop and post a screenshot?

  1. The expected is that (after booting and settling) clicking between screens should be fast
  2. it's not, it seems to wait / delay a long time
  3. screenshot doesn't help
  4. yes, but it will take a bit to reinstall the container fresh again

Thanks for the details. Let me know how a fresh install goes. For reference, this is how fast/slow the interface is on a DS920+
CPU: INTEL Celeron J4125/20GB of ram.
