Actual Behavior

  • Web search settings are ignored, particularly the search result count setting.
  • Performance has degraded when using DuckDuckGo compared to previous versions.
  • v0.5.16 generates results slower than previous versions, specifically slower than versions before v0.5.15, even when full context mode is off.

Description

Bug Summary:

In v0.5.16, web search settings are not being respected, particularly the search result count setting. Additionally, the performance with DuckDuckGo has significantly degraded. The response generation is noticeably slower compared to previous versions, including v0.5.15 and earlier versions without full context mode enabled.

Reproduction Details

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install Open WebUI v0.5.16.
  2. Configure web search settings, ensuring the search result count is set to a specific number.
  3. Enable DuckDuckGo as the search engine.
  4. Perform a web search.
  5. Compare the behavior and response time with previous versions, particularly v0.5.15 and earlier.
  6. Observe that the web search settings are ignored and the response generation is slower.

Open WebUI will search multiple queries with agentic workflow by default for better responses, you can disable the following setting for a single query.

I am not sure if it is only me, or the whole open WebUI becomes super slow (creating new chat, options, open a new tab, etc) when there is a web searching task is running.

I took the time just now to do a deep dive, the slow performance is the search providers, try with SearXNG it's fast.
Disable the agentic search if you need it to be quicker.
