Hickups since installing / using Sensei

[marcelmah]

Hi,

I want to block certain content for my children (porn, phishing etc) and wife (phishing etc).
I installed Sensei and got a home subscription as I require more then one policy.

I just noticed (weren't at home a lot last couple of days) that my Internet hangs a lot since installing Sensei.
Sometimes It's a short hiccup, sometimes It's long enough to disconnect an RDP session. It happens a lot, sometimes multiple times a minute and then a couple of minutes no problem at all.

I'm running OPNsense OPNsense 21.1.9_1-amd64 on VMware ESXi 7 with 8 2.4 Ghz cores and 16 GB of memory.

I tried switching to L3 mode with generic drivers, but everything gets really really slow and switching to bypass mode does not help either. OPNsense shows em interfaces.

Any thoughts?

Alright so maybe It's not Sensei...

I disabled Sensei, problem did not go away.
I uninstalled Sensei, problem did not go away.
I rebooted OPNsense, problem did not go away.
I rebooted my cable modem and initial 'reports' show the problems are gone.

Will monitor and if It's stays fixed I will reinstall Sensei, see if the problem returns.

I reinstalled Sensei, same configuration, all seems fine now...
