Hetzner control panel loads in 8 seconds

Just a fun little project observation. Been running a NAT VPS over at Hetzner for a few months, it actually works fine for what I need. But their control panel? Brutal.

Timed it today:

$ time curl -s https://panel.hetzner.com/login > /dev/null
real    0m8.234s

That's just the login page. No dashboard data, no API calls. Plain HTML in 8 seconds.

Everything else is snappy. My actual services run fine. Just the panel. Anyone else seeing this?

works on my bench ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Route via their AMS PoP adds 340ms before you even hit the panel origin. My traceroute shows 14 hops via Cogent, then a 180ms jump inside their network.

 9  be3045.ccr42.ams03.atlas.cogentco.com  12ms
10  ???                                    180ms
11  panel.hetzner.com                 340ms

Not your connection. Their backend routing.

1ms or I don't want it

Hetzner panel known for this. Server very slow on management side, network not stable for API. But actual VPS fine. I run three there, сервер works good. Just use CLI instead. No need panel.
