Hi, I’m using the NR addon within HASS on an RPi4 with 4Gig RAM. HASS and RN are the latest version. Everything works fine but RN starts absolutely slow. In the past it was fast. I use a relativly fresh installation with only one simple flow in RN (switch → light - on/off).
I have the problem that it takes a long time from clicking on the NR button in the sidebar until the RN dashboard is displayed. It takes 2 minutes and often longer, even though I haven’t configured anything in RN yet. The CPU load is about 5% and RAM is about 25% utilized. To me, that means the RPi’s performance shouldn’t be the issue. It takes more than 1 1/2 minutes until something from RN can be seen (often more) and then “half an eternity” until the dashboard can be operated.
Does anyone know why that is?
Thanks Wally.
I’m a beginner in HA and NR. Please tell me which log I should look into.
No inconsistencies can be seen in the log file that shows the start of the addon. The run-up takes about 15 seconds. In the superviserlog only the start/stop events are list.
When I start the dashboard, which takes so long, I don’t see any additional entries related to NR or anything else that might indicate errors.
I would have guessed the NodeRed logs had something,but if they are clean, then it is hard to go further here on the distance.
Do you connect to the IP address or the URL?
I installed the NodeRED addon from the addon store. It was not required to enter IP address or URL. I configured only the secret.
NodeRED runs on the local host, the same on which HA is running. Think that the ‘localhost’ is is used.
BTW: I did not see further logs generated from NodeRED during execution, only HA logs regarding NR start-up. How can I access further logfiles generated by NR , if any?
You are running the latest version of this add-on.
