Docker runtime slow through frontend only?

[richardr1126]

I am running OpenHands by building from source with the docker compose file. I have also tried the official image. Everything works, but the terminal commands take forever to execute, but what I find odd is that it only has a slow execution time from within the OpenHands interface.

If I execute commands directly within the docker runtime by attaching to the container, everything is very fast. Is there a hidden embedding model or something running inside the OpenHands interface. Why does it take over 2 minutes to return anything from npm i when executed from the OpenHands terminal, but execute super fast in the docker environment terminal?

I am not sure if this is a bug or just me, because it is just really slow when the using things like packages and for install packages. I have checked RAM availability as well, and running on M4 Pro in docker with the default runtime.

Seems its the problem of 0.19 version. All commands fail after default 2 minute timeout instead of returning the output right after finishing. There is no such problem in 0.18

There was an issue in version 0.19 which was fixed in 0.20. However, this may still be an issue. I've brought it up with the team to see if someone can take a look.

Thanks for the help. I started on 0.19 when I first downloaded last week. Tried 0.20 too, I'll try 0.18 now.

I can confirm it's going on in 0.20.0 It's actually really frustrating. Things are taking a long time. In 0.19.0 I was about to give a response which seemed to break the stall but in 0.20.0 that doesn't help. It's not even timing out because I don't think the process is even running any more.

I'll try to get someone to take a look at this.

Hey all I think we have some understanding on this now. For now you can use 0.18 version as that doesn't seem to have the issue.
Hoping to get a fix soon 🤞
