Hi all - I am running a self managed prefect + postgres server, and I am currently load testing it by simply running dozens of my workflows in parallel. It seems to be holding up, but I am occasionally getting strange UI glitches. These can range from pages failing to actually transition to where I click (like it is timing out), or really laggy responses when in a specific flow run (looking around at the emitted logs, trying to explore the task runs etc). I seem to notice it more when I have a time view graph on the page. Are there currently any known issues with the UI stability when the prefect server is understress? I am more than willing to believe that it the problem I have is simply related to an unoptimised setup on my server. But would still like to get some feelers out - it is hard to track down these types of issues.

Hi Tim. Can you give a bit more information about what version you're on? We've done some updates on both the timeline and queries recently that were aimed at improving the UI experience. I'm wondering if they have somehow done something that perhaps does the opposite in your case? Or (if you're not on latest) whether they might help you out?

Hi Jenny -- thanks for reaching out. I feel pretty bad that I have such a vague issue. I don't like being one of those users! I am running with the latest version of prefect
2.14.5
. I kind of feel like there are some queries that are timing out, but not sure how best to isolate them. Tomorrow I will go through with the developer firefox tooling to try to figure this out a little more. Would you have any suggestions on how best to monitor what the UI is doing to see what is happening?
I am playing around a little in the developer tools in firefox. I don't think it is a query issue. I am seeing hundreds of unhandled TypeErrors.
