System is hanging while creating workflow. Self hosted

Questions

I have self hosted n8n in AWS ec2 with docker compose file. Everything is fine, but when I start building workflow my laptops CPU usage is reaching 100% and causing the lagging. My laptop is Lenovo with 8gb RAM and Intel® Core™ i5-8250U CPU @ 1.60GHz × 8 .
Is it normal or have I done anything wrong ? How to verify and fix ?

  • **n8n version:1.60.1
  • **Database (default: SQLite): Postgres 16
  • **n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): default
  • **Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker compose
  • **Operating system: Ubuntu 22

Hey @Mohammed_Imran,

Welcome to the community :tada:

That doesn’t sound normal, How large is the workflow and if you open the browser dev tools are there any errors?

Hi Jon. The workflow is a bit large only and I check the dev tools, there are no erros. I think it is because workflow is bit large. But is there any way to confirm it ?
