Is there a reference for how to troubleshoot performance issues with TrueNAS SCALE + Nextcloud?
I have used TrueNAS CORE for a long time, and finally trying out TrueNAS SCALE, and have not used Docker other than on the desktop to test applications.
It seems that something is "stuck", but I don't know where to look.
I installed TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.2, and Nextcloud 26.0.1_1.6.25 according to the guide (note - after first install attempt didn't work, chose to NOT include ffmpeg per commentary on TrueNAS Discord discussion)
www.truenas.com
Symptom: When connecting to Nextcloud from other computers on the LAN, using a timer on my phone, it took over 3 minutes to switch from "files" to "dashboard", and similar time to switch to photos, and over a minute to open one of the default photos. There is no delay when interacting with the TrueNAS SCALE UI.
The hardware is a fresh bare metal install on an older development-level machine: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1620 @ 3.60GHz (4 cores), 128 GB RAM, mirrored 240 GB SATA SSD pool for TrueNAS, mirrored 240 GB SATA SSD for data.
The readily accessible performance measures are all low - CPU usage < 10% (average load of 0.29, max of 1.38), only 6 GB RAM used (note - new install, so ZFS cache has only used a little so far), and disk usage looks low - about 20 tps when running iostat from the shell, and 300 KB/sec written per SCALE reporting UI. Almost no read activity on the disk (nearly 100% ZFS ARC hits).
The SCALE-Nextcloud App logs aren't flooded with messages or obvious errors- the postgresql log ends with "LOG: database system is ready to accept connections".
The nextcloud log looks mostly automatic healthchecks and limited activity from my logins slowly scrolling.
This is the point I am stuck - is there a reference of where to look for performance issues in the app? The fact that it takes (literally) minutes suggests that something is failing and timing out, but I don't know where specifically to look due to inexperience with SCALE + Docker and Nextcloud.

Adding Nextcloud for Media Previews
Provides instructions to configure TrueNAS SCALE and install Nextcloud to support hosting a wider variety of media file previews such as HEIC, Mp4 and MOV files.
