I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.
Installation Method
Docker
Open WebUI Version
0.6.13
Ollama Version (if applicable)
unused
Operating System
Deploy on Ubuntu, Use on Mac
Browser (if applicable)
Edge
Confirmation
I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
Include any files or environmental changes,
Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.
Expected Behavior
When I initiate a question, the model's response should return quickly.
Actual Behavior
In actual use, it takes a long time to receive a response from the model. According to the Docker logs, a lot of time is spent requesting the application version before the model's API request is initiated.
I don't understand why each time a chat request is initiated, it needs to obtain the app's version, which causes a large amount of redundant performance overhead, resulting in significant performance loss.
