I am using OwnCloud for some personal file storage and synchronizing of Contacts on my Linux server. The web interface is horribly slow with a default install. Here are some of the things I did to adjust performance and make it a bit faster.
PHP Specific
- Increase
memory_limit
to 512MB - Installed php-apc
OwnCloud Specific
- Installed using MySQL instead of SQLite3
- Disabled addons that I did not need
- Changed from AJAX Cron to Cron
Linux Server Specific
- Nothing
I still see a request times on scan.php
to be 1 second+, however, performance overall is much improved.
My System Setup
- OwnCloud 6.02
- MySQL 5.5.35
- PHP FastCGI
- Debian Linux 7.4
- Memory – 4GB
- CPU – 2x2GHz
