Decline in performance after update to 2.1.0.2_beta?

[redusr]

@kenkendk

No, quite the opposite. We have spent effort performance optimizing this version, and the reports here on the forum have mentioned speedups. I do not recall any mentions of slowdown.

Hi @kenkendk , thanks for your reply, that is interesting! Do you have an idea how I could investigate the cause of the decreased performance?

@kenkendk

What operating system are you on?
And what version of Duplicati have you installed?
Is this running in a user context or as a service?
Do you have any pragmas or similar configured for the database?

• OS: Win 11 23H2 64-bit
• Duplicati version: Duplicati - 2.1.0.2_beta_2024-11-29 x64
• Context: I use the Duplicati.GUI.TrayIcon.exe and the databases are stored at %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Duplicati (should be user-context then, right?)
• I do not have any pragmas configured (even though I considered testing that once in another context), the database configuration should be as deployed by Duplicati. Not sure whether that is relevant but the only expert options appearing in the job configuration UI are:

1. job 1: --blocksize=250KB --usn-policy=On --log-file=C:\Users\user\Desktop\job1_log.txt --log-file-log-level=Verbose --no-auto-compact=false
2. job 2: --blocksize=400KB --usn-policy=On.

As seen above, blocksize is smaller than recommended (job 2 is newer, that is why it has an increased blocksize) which may have a performance impact but that would not explain the sudden increase after updating.

If there is any other info you need, just let me know and I will try to supply.

Edit: Added requested info regarding duplicati version.
