Hey folks, I added a couple of drives and started a balance last Friday. I noticed that it was proceeding slowly so I shutdown the rockons service and just let it run.
Last night (Sunday), I noticed that I was receiving lots of errors just trying to navigate the Web UI, and that one CPU core was maxed at 100%, and when I was eventually able to load the status page, it showed only 9% complete!
So, I poked around on here and found Balance is really disruptive - running the command quoted there to disable quotas helped the CPU load and greatly sped up the balance - this morning it had gone from 9% to > 50% complete.
However, but Iām still experiencing a lot of issues while just trying to navigate the web UI. Different commands and urls lead to the issues, but they basically all boil down to either ā[Errno 24] Too many open filesā or else nondescript āunknown internal errors.ā (Presumably those are also be due to too many files errors.)
Hereās a couple of examples:
Houston, weāve had a problem.

Houston, weāve had a problem.
Unknown internal error doing a GET to /api/shares?page=1&format=json&page_size=5000&count=&sortby=name
Lots of different commands and URLs get one of those errors, but it seems pretty consistent - like 4/5 refreshes get an error rather than actually displaying the page I want.
Is this a common / known issue, or is it something specific to my server?
