I'm having a problem that I think is similar to the one here and I don't know how to debug it: RStudio extremely slow if wifi connected
If I'm using Rstudio desktop, things like saving a file, running a code block in an Rmd, or making a new file can randomly (but not infrequently) take a long time to complete.
My internet is not great here, so I would like to use rstudio offline (edit: I mean, I would rather use desktop rstudio, as opposed to server rstudio on my remote computer). As of now though, I'm having better luck using rstudio server through a computer somewhere else that has good internet (and maybe this is fine long run, so not an emergency to figure this out). No shared drives. Ubuntu 18.04.
Are there some configuration things I should be looking at? Should I look at configuring an rstudio server for my local computer too? If I have it serve off 127.0.0.1, traffic won't ever need to go beyond my local loopback interface, right? Thanks!
