Do you have any enhanced apps running? |

Hello, No, it is a bone stock Heimdall image installation (lscr.io/linuxserver/heimdall:2.5.8). I just re-created the issue on a stock rpi install and fresh pull below, without the page loaded. Reproduction session logThe I've also just now separately recreated on a quickly spun-up ubuntu-22.04.4-LTS amd64 proxmox VM with lscr.io/linuxserver/heimdall:2.5.8 to rule out (unlikely) differences between architectures or host configs; same behavior with the php daemon reading the /docker/heimdall/config/www/app.sqlite every 3 seconds: |

The issue still occurs. I am still trying to dig in to isolate the location of the timed reads; slow-going as I am not a PHP expert and have many other things on my plate at the moment. |

Hello,
Like many others probably, I run Heimdall as an internal service directory, in my case on a Raspberry Pi which services many basic network microservices and is backed up on a UPS to let it and my router/core switch keep running in a power outage for as long as possible.
In running
fatraceto try to check on and reduce SD card IO, I discovered that Heimdall (linuxserver/heimdall:2.5.8in a docker container, without the page loaded in my browser to rule out javascript or other client-side checks, and the stock homepage from a fresh install with exactly 0 customization) continuously reads the sqlite database every 3 seconds, increasing wear on the SD card. While I realize I can likely connect it to an external database over the network, keeping a homepage app self-contained is much more portable and .. well, self-contained.I dug through the code and there are several timers running, but have not been able to isolate the process or need to read the database, especially every 3 seconds. I think it is in one of the
vendor/*libraries included, or possiblyresources/views/layouts/app.blade.php.A better design pattern would be that something like inotify or equivalent be set up against the database to reread it on change and/or on demand when the page is loaded, and the service should be almost entirely idle when the page is not loaded or changes are being made.
