Backend REALLY Slow in 2.1

Since upgrading to 2.1 my site, especially the admin part, seems to have slowed WAY down. When I click on a product to edit it, it seems to take forever to load the page. Sometimes I have to hit refresh several times before it will load at all.



Anyone having these problems or know how to fix them?

This was a known issue with 2.1 and was fixed in 2.1.1 or you can apply this manual patch.

OK thanks. I’ll go ahead and update to 2.1.1.

I updated to 2.1.1 but it permanently closed my store so I had to revert.



I’ve applied the manual patch but notice no difference. If anything, it’s slower than before.

It permanently closed your store??



I am having the same exact issue with extreme slowness in the admin, taking up to 70 sec to just save a product, even without making any changes.



However, if the upgrade (which I haven’t installed yet), has problems, I don’t want to make things worse by installing it.



Is there more help on this?

Yea, after upgrading to 2.1.1 my store refused to re-open. I had no choice but to revert to 2.1.



After I reverted, Brandondvd posted in another thread that he had the same problem, but discovered that deleting the contents of the /var/compiled folder allowed him to open the store again.



I’m going to try upgrading again this afternoon. I’ll post the results here.

I would appreciate that. If it works for you, I’ll go ahead and upgrade. Thanks.

OK I just upgraded to 2.1.1 again.



Once again, the store would NOT OPEN.



I deleted the contents of /var/compiled/



and the store opened and is working fine now.



The front end of the store is still a little slow, but not unacceptably so.



Same for the backend…a little slow, but not unacceptable.

I did the update, had some problems trying to get it to install, but finally succeeded. I didn’t have a problem re-opening the storefront. And all seems working. The speed seems a little better. Time will tell.

The demo/test store of Martfox ([url]http://www.cscartdemo.martfox.com/[/url]) has been upgraded since the version 2.0.14 every time after a new version upgrade and works fine and without any issues.
