Hi Since the vmware properties are read-only after host creation, would it be possible to not automatically load them when editing a host? Perhaps only load them after clicking on the 'virtual machine' tab? The vmware API is *so* slow and editing a host can be really painful.
Created from redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/15519
This was cloned from upstream but Satellite users are reporting that when there are a large # of virtual machines against VMWare compute resources the Host -> Edit screen may take a very long time to render.
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/15519 has been resolved.
*** Bug 1392537 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Build: Satellite 6.2.7 snap1 Testing before the patch with 6.2.6 while editing the host it took around 15 secs to render the page. Testing after the patch with 6.2.7 snap1 it took around 4 secs of time to render the Edit host page. This patch has greatly reduced the time it takes to render the edit hosts page for vmware hosts. Marking this as verified
