No.

The rebuild may be triggered if needed after a manual restart of the server/container/app and hence take a bit longer (few mins) to start.

Restarting the app via Cloudron will essentially re-run this start script https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/nodebb-app/-/blob/master/start.sh?ref_type=heads

It does a bit more than what the internal rebuild does, so rebuilding and restarting from within nodebb if it asks for is preferred. Also it will put a nicer placeholder page with the forum style instead of the generic Cloudron one.
