The main server is using an i5-8500 3ghz, 32gb ddr4 3200mhz, a gtx 1650.

The Ubuntu VM is using virtual hardware: 4 core, 4gb ram.

The img is on an Unraid Array drive for redundancy and not the cache, which is definitely slower due to to the parity writing.

But most other things, including the Ubuntu VM itself loads quick. Just Umbrel seems to load slow. 🤔

Strange. Check with umbrel support, they may have an idea.

I may upgrade the cache drive to a tb nvme and see if that works better. I'd lose redundancy but it might run better...

A faster drive will help for sure. I've got everything on sata SSD.

I would but my tb nvme is in my other PC. Unfortunately, the way Unraid works means the nvme has no form of backup, only the array drives do. So I choose speed or data redundancy... the cache drive is 256gb and being used by all the docker containers as well.

As a quick test I am bumping the virtual ram to 8gb to see if it helps too.

Okay... that was the problem... the VM needed 8gb. Umbrel loads almost immediately now.
