Alert Manager- Incident Posture dashboard is super slow

Hey, I've been using the Incident Posture dashboard as the SOC monitoring platform for about 6 months now and it worked great, now suddenly the dashboard is super slow, it takes about 3 minutes to load the incidents, which is a lot. Normal searches work fine.
Any idea why? The search heads are virtual and have 32GB RAM and 8 CPUs each.

Thanks in advance.

The problem was with some debug incidents that made thousands of alerts per day, which made searching the alerts index very slow. I ended up disabling those alerts and deleting them from the alerts index.

Can you check if you find any technical issues by looking at the job inspector?

If the number of incidents is high, enabling data model acceleration for the alerts data model might help.

In the upcoming version, the searches are rewritten to not use data models, this should speed up loading the dashboard.
