License server slowing down vite startup?

Hi guys, I’m currently experiencing super slow vite startup, about 45 seconds.

There’s two log outputs of
[needle-license] INFO: Waiting for license server to start...
which take about 20 seconds each, so that seems to be the culprit.

Needle Engine Version: 4.4.1 Unity 2022.3.60f1, Needle Engine Integration @4.4.1

Any ideas?

Hey there –
I’ve seen this sometimes as well but not consistent. Would be great to get to the bottom of this.

Do you have more info? E.g. did this start at a specific date/version? Have you changed network providers? Etc.

I’ve been on 4.3.2 before and there it went quicker. I just downgraded my mostly empty 4.4.1 project to 4.3.2 and it’s down to ~12s (from ~45!) again.

I did not dabble in the 4.4.0 betas, so this is all the info I can give you right now.

Maybe there is more verbose logging I can activate?

Hi, thanks for reporting!

Could you try updating the engine in your web project to 4.4.2 and let me know if it fixes the issue?

You can install the update e.g. by running npm install @needle-tools/engine@4.4.2 in your web project and then npm start to start the dev server (please make sure 4.4.2 has been installed)

Yep 4.4.2 brings it down to 8s. Good job, thanks!
