💬 [Question] Navigation is quite slow

💬 Question

I would like to use Cypht as a replacement for Gmail (plus other email providers). At the moment, my main concern is related to speed during navigation.

Going back and forth between the email list and 'singe-fullscreen-message' page is very slow compared to Gmail interface. The same feeling you get when switching folder (like unread, spam, etc). When you have many emails to browse this feels like impractical. Basically, the 'progress bar' at the top of the page takes around 2 seconds (90% of the times, sometimes it is fast, like it uses the cache, but most of the times is ~2 sec).

My Cypht server is in the LAN (so in theory it could be even faster than gmail if email are already pre-loaded in the cache).

I am wondering if this is expected or maybe there is something misconfigured on my side. I am asking... Among the possible configuration designs (session manager, memcached vs redis vs db or whatever), which is the one that it is expected to provide the best user experience possible?

At the moment I am using the latest official docker image.
Thanks

For me it made a big speed difference to use Redis. I haven't tried Memcached, though

Hello @elmuz

We recommend using Redis to improve Cypht's performance. Here's our setup guide with Redis configuration example: https://github.com/cypht-org/cypht/wiki/Cypht%E2%80%90Redis-setup
