Question

Hi everyone I have a question about labels in Fleet I hope someone can help We have custom metadata that helps identify our hosts for the team using them the environment they belong to and so on the result is we have maybe 150 labels all along the lines of `SELECT 1 FROM custom metadata WHERE team = Team name ` for each team name in use This was working fine but today we noticed that the labels were failing to load in the Fleet sidebar The request to ` api v1 kolide labels` times out The equivalent request `fleetctl get labels` was working but taking several seconds Are we creating too many labels here perhaps Is there a better way to accomplish this instead

If I try to reproduce it via curl ```time curl H Authorization Bearer lt redacted gt gt https lt fqdn gt 8080 api v1 kolide labels gt test json Total Received Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00 40 0 curl 92 HTTP 2 stream 1 was not closed cleanly INTERNAL ERROR err 2 real 0m40 024s```

Via fleetctl works but takes a couple of seconds ```time fleetctl get labels lt output of all labels 178 results gt real 0m2 370s```

There s no formal roadmap Fleet development mostly depends on what I can get funding for things that catch my attention or high priority bugs
