Hi,
Just wanted to point out that the dashboard after the upgrade, looks really good.
That said, one of the widget (Firewall) ends up crashing the browser tab after a few minutes. I was able to see from the debugging console that a lot of calls to a function took 89% of the rendering performance. Removing the widget fixes the issue. My guess is that it's polling real-time all firewall events, and when you have moderate traffic, it starts causing freezes and the tab eventually crash with a SIGTerm. The same behaviour on both, main and ha appliance.
Not a huge issue, but still a bit annoying.
Thanks for all the work on opnsense!
Hi,
Sounds like https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/7975
Can you try this patch?

Hi Franco
I disabled the logging on all the FW policies, I will try to reproduce the issue to see if the NIC will crash again.
I understood that Realtek is not having full compatibility with OPNsense, and I am looking to replace it with an Intel card.
This issue should not be influenced by Realtek driver. It's a network load issue which may clog down the firewall live dashboard widget.

Yep! Much better. I can still hear the cpu fan and see higher CPU usage when on the dashboard, but it doesn't freeze anymore and dashboard performance are good. Thank you kindly!!
Thanks for confirming. A better fix will hit 24.7.7 and possibly a 24.10 hotfix later this week.
Cheers,
Franco
