Since a few weeks I noticed that parts of my Home Assistant system has become extremely slow. Simple automations like “Button on Shellly pressed → turn light on” take between 2 and almost 10 seconds from pressing the button to turning on the lights. Before, it used to be virtually instant. Also, graphs need much longer to load.
I have checked other similar topics but found none that matches my problem.
What I have done so far:
- checked the logs → nothing exciting
- installed Glances and System Monitor → nothing exciting, see image
- doubled the resources in Proxmox for my Home Assistant VM → no difference
- cleand up my database → now down to 2,2GB → no difference
- checked the traces for some automations: The recorded times for running the automations are always super fast (< 0.2s)
- spun up another Home Assistant instance on the same Proxmox Host and tested some automations on it → automations run with no significant delay.
What else could I do to find the culprit for the delays?
Thank you!
