Description

We should analyse and improve where feasible

  • Loading time when opening a link to a document (loading with files app from scratch)
    • Frontend profiling, possibly optimize viewer and files app loading to be deferred
  • Loading time when having the files list open and clicking on a file in the file list
    • Frontend profiling for files app, viewer, richdocuments
  • Time of requests that happen from Collabora to Nextcloud
    • Profile requests and see what happens in them in the backend and if things can be improved
    • See if requests can be saved with the new settings endpoints being fetched
  • iframe load until document rendering within Collabora
  • Can we do any smart pre-loading, like when hovering elements
    • Within Collabora
    • Within Nextcloud

Research direction

Begin with frontend profiling for the files app, viewer, and richdocuments across the two document-opening flows. Then profile Collabora-to-Nextcloud requests and iframe loading through document rendering. Done would require measured bottlenecks, feasible improvements, and evidence of their impact, but the issue names no files or tests.
