Your ML model cache volume is getting blown up during restart and the model is being re-downloaded during the first search post-restart. Either set it to a path somewhere on your storage, or ensure you’re not blowing up the dynamic volume upon restart.
In my case I changed this:
immich-machine-learning:
...
volumes:
- model-cache:/cache
To that:
immich-machine-learning:
...
volumes:
- ./cache:/cache
I no longer have to wait uncomfortably long when I’m trying to show off Smart Search to a friend, or just need a meme pronto.
That’ll be all.
As other stated it’s not a bad way of managing volumes. In my scenario I store all volumes in a
/configfolder.For example on my SearXNG instance I have a volume like such:
services: searxng: … volumes: - ./config/searx:/etc/searxng:rwSo why would you not write out the full path? I frequently rerun compose commands from various places, if I’m troubleshooting an issue.
The other day my raspberry pi decided it didn’t want to boot up, I guess it didn’t like being hosted on an SD card anymore, so I backed up my
composefolder and reinstalled Rasp Pi OS under a different username than my last install.If I specified the full path on every container it would be annoying to have to redo them if I decided I want to move to another directory/drive or change my username.
