Slow space listing on a community with many topics

[deleted] 3 months ago Resolved

One of my spaces has a few thousand topics and the listing page is sluggish. Others are fast. Is there an index or a setting I should check for large spaces?

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

The importer preserves original dates and maps forums to spaces. Always run with --dry-run first to preview counts, take a database backup, then run the real import. It batches large datasets so timeouts are not a concern.
