Hi everyone,

Since I now have to adjust a lot of rules after migrating the firewall rules,
I've noticed that with the new rules, it always takes a very long time for the settings to be applied to the system. After making a change, I always have to wait about 10+ seconds per rule before I can make any further changes.
I didn't have this problem with the old rules; if I changed something, it was more or less immediately possible to edit another rule, etc.
Will anything be done to improve the performance? Because as it is, it's very unsatisfactory in that regard.
My OPNsense is running on the following hardware, which is actually more or less underutilized; on the contrary, I don't have a heavy load on it.

Intel(R) Celeron(R) N5105 @ 2.00GHz (4 cores, 4 threads) (approx. 2-5% usage, occasionally a short-term 30% spike)
16 GB RAM: 10% usage
SSD Disk: 3% usage

Many thanks and for your feedback

Also N5105 here.  The new UI is definitely slower to load (especially on first landing due to the default 'any' view), but making rule changes is fine.  I haven't noticed this extreme of a slow down.

How many rules are we talking about?  I'm only sitting at 87 according to the UI.
