Videos buffering

[sir.paradise]

I was wondering if Cloudron has something to do with my videos buffering for such a long time on RocketChat?
What service could I add ram to?
Or shall I just use Cloudflare ?

Just thinking out loud ;))

This is hard to make a generic suggestion. You have to debug this further:

• Is this only for you or for other users as well? This will help understand if this is your client network issue or client browser issue.
• Check browser networking tab for delays when playing that video file.
• Are images etc displaying quickly enough ?
• Is Rocket.Chat configured for storing attachments in remote storage or are you using local storage?

Thank you for your reply, and I am using local storage on the VPS.
It seems to be happening to everyone, that's why I thought of Cloudflare.
It could be a memory problem as I am trying to run 3 heavy systems on a VPS.
I was thinking Cloudflare might take a bit of weight off my server.
It is that or buy more Ram. I only have 6GiG at this time.

@sir-paradise ah ok. Rocket.chat is quite heavy memory wise. They are suggesting 2GB min - https://docs.rocket.chat/deploy/deploy-rocket.chat/system-requirements per instance as well as 8GB for mongodb (you can adjust this in Services -> MongoDB). Cloudflare caching might help, but I don't have experience with how it works with videos.

Ah, so it is the mongodb that needs a lot of ram allocated to it, thank you
I was wondering with service to put ram too, so this helps a lot of thanks ;))
