Copying site files each time is inefficient

[agneevX]

Hello.

I'm running Speedtest-tracker on my Raspberry Pi, which has a SD card.

When the container is started, it copies tens of thousands of files to the mapped config folder (www).

This causes the server to severely freeze and system load to balloon to over 12.

Not only that, heavy I/O of this kind also causes issues with the SD card.

Context

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04
• Speedtest-Tracker Version: 1.10.4

I rsync or robocopy to a remote server and I can relate. This helps but it would be nice for the config folder to only have config files and the database.

Why is the www folder so big?

This is typical of Node dependencies. It should however read from the Docker image.
