Symptoms
When opening the user initial page, FeCru checks for updates in each repository that the user has access to. That makes the Front Page loads extremely slow.
Cause
This is a known bug: FE-4090 that will be fixed on Fisheye 2.8. Factors affecting performance are:
number of stars the user has
number of repos the user can view
which tab is selected: All | Commits | Reviews | Issues
status of the 'Show My Activity' checkbox
Workaround
If you remove all stars from your profile and uncheck the 'Show My Activity' checkbox, then the Dashboard page should load in under 1 second.
However, the page load time will perform fairly linearly with the factors listed above.
