I've released a new app package now for 20.0.1 but we will only roll this out slowly.
Just upgraded, everything seems to work fine! I had to restart the app once, afterwards I could see all update steps being taken in the logs.

update ran smoothly.
but most of the nextcloud apps are not compatible for the new major version -
@luckow Any on top of your head that are incompatible? I thought we are in the first patch release already...
@girish i looked into the app admin view again. Aaaannnd magic
Only three of my installed apps are in the status "untested app". I do not know what happened at first view. Maybe tomatoes on my eyes or a cache topic.

Update went smoothly, with 11 apps updated too. Great stuff!
Just Draw.io and Retention apps remain Untested for me.
Only done on my personal server as I think work production servers should wait a while for a good month of uptime and anecdotes really.

Anyone has found NC to be generally a little slower since the update?
It seems mine is. Definitely loading the dashboard takes a long while when opening the NC app (I have disabled now the Dashboard because of it), but even general navigation and document loading seem a little more sluggish than before.

Mine is slower, too, which I think is due to the "unified search" which has to index a lot of data at any time...

Also it will have cleared a lot of caches, so you should notice speed improve with use.

With the latest nc package, there is a directory called /app/data/apache. Inside this, you will find mpm_prefork.conf. You should bump up the Nextcloud app's memory limit and also bump the values inside this file to get some better performance.

@avatar1024 This mostly depends on how many plugins and users you have, this is why we made it configurable. I would just play around with those values a bit to get a feel of any performance benefits. The default prefork file has some comments on what those values mean.

Last night I saw the update available for NC. This made me both excited and reluctant at the same time.
Excited because I'm interested to try some of the new features. Reluctant because I use my NC instances heavily for work and personal.
I'd appreciate if anyone is using any of these apps, can you confirm if the following apps are working in 20.*:
- Appointments
- Forms
- Deck
- Polls
- Tasks
- Bookmarks
- News
- Phonetrack
- Music
(I am assuming the Calendar, Contacts and Mail applications are already working.)

You can double check yourself by visiting https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/ and looking up each app

This is where I wish we used faster more efficient webservers for our apps. So many choices.
