Hello,

I have Passbolt (4.10.1) installed on a Debian 12 VM with PHP-FPM 8.2.26. I followed the tutorial available for the installation.

Since upgrading to version 4.10.1, there has been a strange slowdown in the application when I go to the Administration tab after first navigating to the Users tab.

I checked the error logs, and this message appears each time:

```cmd
[error] 2048317#2048317: *18358 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx, server: _, request: "GET /app/administration/mfa HTTP/2.0", upstream:

```

I have reviewed the Nginx configuration, but it seems unlikely that it’s the cause since everything was working fine before this update.

This issue slows down the entire VM. If I perform this action and it causes a slowdown, it also impacts all other users at the same time.

I’m out of ideas on how to resolve this. HEALTHCHECK is all green

Thank you.

Hello, what is the size of the `action_logs` table?

Hello, 1.5Gib 😱 It’s way too much, right?

Edit: I made this command:

```cmd
sudo su -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/share/php/passbolt/bin/cake passbolt action_logs_purge -r 90" www-data

```

But it is limited to 100000 deletions maximum, right?

Edit 2 :  
The issue was indeed with my `action_logs` table. With over 3 million entries, it was causing the application to lag every time someone accessed it.

I truncated the table all at once.
