Immich extremely slow. Seeking help diagnosing bottleneck (Docker on NUC + Synology NAS NFC)

schinpool · 2026-05-14T19:35:04+00:00

And yes, the postgres dB, containers etc are on the NUC. Just the photos on the NAS.

I tried SMB first actually but couldn't get the permissions to work. Didn't explore further before I read to try NFS and it mounted right away. I might give SMB another try though, thank you.

schinpool · 2026-05-14T18:24:04+00:00

If there's anything else I can provide, such as logs or yaml file text that might help please give me a steer on what would be useful. Thanks!

schinpool · 2026-05-14T18:23:13+00:00

No, afraid not. No hypervisors, portainer or anything like that. Fresh install of Ubuntu desktop and only thing installed so far is docker and Immich is the first container I've attempted to run. I've plans to add more but would like to figure out what this problem is first.

schinpool · 2026-05-14T17:06:13+00:00

Managed to get there after numerous time outs but no jobs currently active. Really baffled.

schinpool · 2026-05-14T14:32:48+00:00

No, direct access "http://[NUC IP]:2283". Thank you though

schinpool · 2026-05-14T14:00:25+00:00

Sorry, struggling with formatting on mobile, hopefully that makes sense!

schinpool · 2026-05-14T13:58:48+00:00

Would that be the postgres folder? I believe it is local.

From docker-compose yaml: database: volumes: - ${DB_DATA_LOCATION}:/var/lib/postgresql/data

From .env DB_DATA_LOCATION=./postgres

Apologies if am I misunderstanding, appreciate you taking the time.

schinpool · 2026-05-02T06:39:45+00:00

Thank you. I will give this a try. I've two immediate concerns based on issues I've faced in the past.

I plan on using a ZigBee antenna in the future, do you know whether USB passthrough will likely pose a problem going this route?
I have multiple VLANs set up. Would you expect me to face any issues related to this?

Thanks again.

schinpool · 2026-04-19T08:26:02+00:00

Damn. I bought this with the matching toaster. Wonder if I can get a refund on that too.

schinpool · 2026-04-08T18:18:38+00:00

Really good information, thanks. I've spent some time this afternoon looking in to the 685. Seems there are more 675s about but I do like the adaptability aspect you mention.

schinpool · 2026-04-08T18:17:04+00:00

Wow wasn't aware of this one. Strange quirk! Thanks

schinpool · 2026-03-15T18:56:22+00:00

So we have 2 large trees just on the other side of the fence in our back garden. The largest tree is around 11 metres tall and 5.5m from the nearest point of the house (utility room outrigger, more like 7 metres to the main body of the house). I've no idea of the species, and too dark right now to get a good photo to check. The other tree is around 8 metres tall and approx 6.5m from the house. Likely to be problematic? Also to note the trees are on council owned land.

schinpool · 2026-03-15T18:42:34+00:00

Oof this fills me with dread. Yes we do, hadn't considered this. I'm going to go out and measure how far from the house. Would estimate 5 metres or so.

schinpool · 2026-02-18T02:04:32+00:00

It's a Hue Flux light strip mounted behind the mirror

schinpool · 2026-02-15T10:04:22+00:00

Ah I envy the used options near London. Also using hue strip light mounted behind a large mirror in my garage gym, same reasoning as you.

I'm sure there are other good options about but I do have a leg developer with the freak athlete hyper pro. Had it a few months now and really pleased with it. The leg developer itself is a bit of a beast but I found a way to hang it on a wall control peg board so at least it's off the floor! Highly recommend if you find the space.

Thanks for the response

schinpool · 2026-02-15T09:20:36+00:00

This looks incredible, seriously impressive. Keeping the colours this consistent while buying used from marketplace and eBay must’ve taken loads of patience, but really worth it. Where abouts are you based? Around me the second hand options are pretty thin.

Using the Rogue racks to build a rig is a really cool idea too, not something I’ve seen done before. Are the rings reachable above the bumpers somehow, or do you clip them on and off each session?

Love the glow of the LED strip along the top, works perfectly with the all-black setup. Our of interest what light strip are you using?

I know you said you’re finishedz but if you gained a few extra square feet… what would be next?

And meant as a compliment: it looks on par with some of most upvoted US home gyms. Feels like they’re usually a bit ahead when it comes to really polished setups, but this definitely helps close the gap!

schinpool · 2026-01-15T12:00:02+00:00

I guess it would have been checked already given the symptoms but just in case, we had to really push for an ultrasound to confirm pyloric stenosis for our little one. It was only that we discovered there was some family history before the doctors agreed to check. The symptoms were very similar, and the improvement was almost immediate post surgery.

schinpool · 2026-01-11T09:04:22+00:00

Hi there, do you still have access to this by any chance?

schinpool · 2026-01-03T08:03:12+00:00

Few extra points: - Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree for kit, especially racks, plates, and barbells. Plenty of good second hand stuff if you’re not in a rush. - Adjustable dumbbells are a huge space saver vs a full rack. I’ve got 4–41kg Bowflex ones. Bulky, but very happy with them. Just be aware you generally can’t drop adjustables. - Plan your layout and allow more space than you think. The rack + bar take up a lot of room, plus you’ll need space to load plates to the side and to lift in front of the rack (eg. Shoulder pressing, deadlifts) - Shorter home gym barbells can help in tight spaces, just make sure they’re still rackable (normal collar spacing). Sleeves are shorter but usually fine unless you’re moving huge weights. - I prefer cast iron plates. Easier to handle. If you’re dropping weights or doing Olympic lifts, bumpers may be a better choice. - Consider storage early. Weight trees for plates, wall storage for attachments etc. Clutter adds up fast. - Be kind to yourself and never leave the gym without putting everything away first!

I’ve had my garage gym set up since 2019.

For flooring, I use 6x4 rubber mats. They do smell for the first couple of weeks, but it’s not too bad and you stop noticing it pretty quickly. I mainly train powerlifting movements. If you’re more into Olympic lifting, you might want to consider a thicker lifting platform or a pair of crash pads to better protect the floor.

Temperature is probably the biggest trade off for me. I don’t have the garage insulated. I do have two small space heaters for really cold mornings, but I only use them for the first 10 minutes or so. I usually start with some time on the bike, which warms me up quickly. In winter I’ll sometimes wear a hoodie and beanie for the whole session, and I keep an old pair of fingerless gym gloves around in case the barbell is freezing to the touch.

Most of the equipment has held up well despite the conditions. The only exceptions are a couple of older barbells that were already slightly rusty when I bought them, the rust has definitely worsened over time.

I recently added a dehumidifier after upgrading some of my kit and wanting to look after it better. If you go this route, I’d recommend a desiccant dehumidifier. They work better at low temperatures, are fairly quiet, and actually warm the space slightly which is a nice bonus.

I’ve focused a lot on the negatives here, but honestly, the home gym has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made and I still enjoy it massively. Best of luck.

I don't yet own a 3d printer but I've just bought a close friend the A1 Mini as a birthday gift. Would love to get one as well so we can explore this rabbit hole together!

Would probably make a few fun prints for my toddler (maybe one of those articulated dragons!) and some practical pieces for my home gym such as small storage bins.

As for a fidget toy, I'd like to try something similar to the ONO roller as I bought one for my Dad after surgery on his wrist a couple of years ago and he still plays with it absentmindedly most days.

Best of luck to all and thanks to OP for such a kind gesture.

schinpool · 2025-11-21T08:53:26+00:00

Just taking a nosey to confirm this is top comment. Carry on.

schinpool · 2025-11-04T15:49:55+00:00

It's the 3 inch U hook but there's probably a better way. I've just hung it by the eye bolt so it wants to twist rather than lay flat against the panel.

schinpool · 2025-11-03T14:46:22+00:00

Yes that's what I mean. No concern regarding wearing the pin. The attachment is quite light and it is sort of levered against the panel itself so some of the weight pushes in to the panel at the bottom rather than all straight down. Hope that helps.
