Slow WebDAV performance

Can you confirm if it takes approx 30 seconds before a response? If so then most likely the brute force mechanism got triggered and is slowing down the responses.

You can disable it in the config.php file by adding:

'auth.bruteforce.protection.enabled' => false,

But it would be better to improve the configuration. If you are behind a proxy, you will most likely translate all public IP’s to an internal IP, so it will look like only one IP is communicating, causing the brute force mechanism to be triggered.

Add to the config.php the following:

  'forwarded_for_headers' =>
  array (
    0 => 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED',
    1 => 'HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR',
  ),

and add to Apache (if you are using Apache) to the virtualhost:

  ProxyVia On
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto 'https' env=HTTPS
