Hi all, TL:DR - After comparing Collabora Online (both with and without the built in server app) and ONLYOFFICE (with an ONLYOFFICE server) - I have a conundrum: I really prefer the Collabora software/UI better as it’s more faithful to GD and MSO, but Collabora seems to have an inherant latency wh…

It seems to be the same with mine. When I right-click the mouse, it takes a little while for the menu to appear.

As far as I know, Collabora is very dependent on reactive servers. The main part is executed on the server and streamed to the browser. In comparison, OnlyOffice does more on the browser side (but a server is also necessary for communication). If you want to debug this, I would start with the server…

Hey @JupiterSnarled , [image] JupiterSnarled: Nice! Well, I have confirmed it x3. It happens on dedicated hosting, and 2 separate managed hosting setups (different hosts) on clean installs. of course you are right, not having a fully hosted solution personally, that was an incorrect assumptio…

No, I’m using Docker deployment. This is my compose configuration, I’ve removed the sensitive information: collabora: image: collabora/code:25.04.7.2.1 container_name: collabora restart: always networks: nextcloud-3in1: ipv4_address: 172.18.0.2 ports: * “30001:9980” environment: * aliasgroup1=ht…

On my current managed setup: It happens both with the “Built in” Collabora app, as well as using a dedicated Collabora server provided by my host. Monitoring the load and memory, it seems fine CPU hovers around 15-20% and can go up to 30% while I’m navigating around, and typing in a document wit…

[ezgif-44d1caf4f04ddf8d]The text editing function works correctly, but there is a delay when right-clicking the mouse; the menu appears after about 0.5 seconds. I can also provide the reverse proxy parameters if needed, and I have already set the parameters very high in the coolwsd.xml file.

@Ok_Know , thanks for that. that slight lag upon opening the context menu after right click on a spreadsheet can be confirmed… not sure if its 0,5 seconds, but yes there is a lag and something is happening on the network graph… but its ever so slight. other resources don’t budge and my system is no …

Yes, this delay is noticeable to the human eye, and it’s clearly different from the immediate menu that pops up when you right-click on a document locally. Thank you for using such professional data to prove that I wasn’t lying. I only know how to record videos and convert them to GIFs.

Typing lag on Collabora vs. OPENOFFICE - anything to be done?

nope, cannot confirm…

have you considered contacting hosting support?

you could try host collabora locally or on a VPS for comparison using this simple setup:
