    I think it might be due to size of VM 'B8ms'. We are using 'D8 v3' and no performance issues.

    You can try restarting VM, if still doesn't help then consider deploying a new VM with higher specs.

    Hi Menna,

    Thanks for the clarification. Do you know the exact VM size? (e.g. D12v2, B8ms) Using a VM with faster disks will perform better. Next to that, you can disable particular services to free up some resources. E.g. you can disable the batch service and management reporter sync service.

    Hi Menna,

    Can you update us if you are using a cloud hosted development environment or a local hosted OneBox? Please also provide the current VM size or the configuration for a local hosted VM.

    If the development environment d365fo hosted on Azure?

    If yes please check the Hosting region and from where you are logged in?

    Being in the same region would be giving less latency.

    Also, check which VM size they have used. if   Dxv3 ask for B8ms  or so (azure VM size: learn.microsoft.com/.../sizes)

    or for resize for the VM please check this post: www.linkedin.com/.../

    Hi Menna, Generally closing SQL server and other applications in Devbox and restarting browser helps. Please ensure that you don't have lot of tabs opened in browser. Stop unwanted batch jobs.
