Slow Admin Panel Performance in Magento 2.x?

[marcossant1a6e]

Hey everyone,

I’ve been noticing a significant performance issue with the Magento 2.x admin panel lately, and it’s starting to affect my workflow. The admin panel is incredibly slow to load, and some actions like editing products, processing orders, or even just navigating between sections take an unexpectedly long time.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

• Cleared the Magento cache, both via admin and command line.

• Disabled unnecessary extensions.

• Checked for any database performance issues.

• Optimized the database using the recommended Magento commands.

However, none of this seems to have resolved the problem. I’m not sure if it’s a server issue, a configuration issue, or something in the Magento backend itself.

Has anyone else encountered this issue with slow admin performance? What steps did you take to resolve it? I would appreciate any tips or recommendations on optimizing Magento 2.x for better admin panel speed!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @marcossant1a6e ,

You can check server top or htop command during admin activity and try to increase CPU and Random Access Memory (short form not allowed here ). Example: 4 CPU cores and 8–16 GB Random Access Memory

pm.max_children, pm.start_servers, and other relevant values increase in case you are using php-fpm.

One more thing you can validate is redis.

If you are not using local redis then try once to identify it's redis latency related issue or not

Problem Solved? Accept as Solution!

Hope it helps!

Thanks

You might want to check if the cache is enabled and indexes are up to date. Also, try disabling unnecessary third-party extensions — they can really slow down the admin panel in Magento 2. A good hosting setup with enough resources can make a big difference too
