Is some additional configuration required to make the 8.7 beta version run faster?

I have set the same configuration which is used for the 7.x version. The 7.x is running smoothly (less than 0.3 second) but not 8.7. The response time seems to be more than 2 second when a new view or action is loaded in 8.7. Has anyone noticed 8.6 is better in performance of speed than 8.7? Thanks

So far, the other way round on my installations.
Same server, same setup and 8.7 feels minimally faster than 8.6.

But I had one case on a shared hosting where 8.6 ran significantly slower than on a VPS.

Are you on shared hosting?
And are the server setups the same (or better, the same server with both versions installed)?

Thank you ! I have a minimum configuration development virtual machine on Azure with 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, 4 Cores Processor, PHP 8.3, MariaDB 10, Apache Web Server etc… I have both 7.x and 8.7 beta installed on the same. But I see the differences in the speed of 7.x and 8.7. Suite 8.7 is slow on this machine. I have added some configuration in config_override.php with development mode off and other recommended settings like VCR etc for improving the speed. The official online suite 8 demo(8.6) is very smooth and impressive. I am trying to make my installed suite 8 setup to run with a better speed. I think I am missing something in my setup. Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Hey @Harshad, have you looked at the following page?

  • APCu and opcache make a BIG difference. Mostly APCu, as it caches symfony/api platform metadata.

Thank you @BastianHammer , @anthony.oak.castro , This looks good. I will make changes in my configuration as per these.

:thinking: is it working with it?

sorry it is 8.2 php version

I just reinstalled 8.7. It is working fine. Both the versions 7.14 and 8.7 run with a good speed :slight_smile:
