Survey submission is excruciatingly slow

I'm having trouble with a survey instance I've installed on a VM. Everything is working great, but when I (or users) click "Submit", there is a good 10s+ pause until the confirmation page is shown. (Until then, it just scrolls to the top, which seems "broken".) I am using local MySQL as a backend.
1) any idea why this would be this slow?
2) is there any way to have a splash page, like the typical "don't press the back button" pages on some payment processors?
Thanks!
Juan.

Sounds more like an issue with your hosting environment.jnuneziglesias wrote: 1) any idea why this would be this slow?
Is the survey with a group by group or an all in one display mode?
Create a one question survey and check again. Is the submit lag issue the same?

Good suggestion, thanks! I don't have time to try it now but will in the morning.

I tried the test survey and it took a long time also. I'm not really sure what that means though!

Failing that, you can set debug =1 in /application/config/config.php. This will bypass the assets manager so all files are loaded from the theme directory.

Ok, what version of LimeSurvey is used.jnuneziglesias wrote: I tried the test survey and it took a long time also. I'm not really sure what that means though!
Look at the bottom to see the version. Depending on your version you can click on the version and a window with additional infos about your LimeSurvey installation is displayed.
To me this looks like a hosting environment issue. VM setup (what technology is used?) might has an I/O issue.

@tpartner, resetting the assets appears to have changed the behavior for the better. Now the browser appears to be loading the next page after hitting "submit", rather than just sending me back to the top of the survey. So, as far as I'm concerned, it's usable now. Thank you!
@jelo, the version is Version 3.14.5+180815. The dokuwiki site running on the same VM is fast enough, so it doesn't seem to be some Apache issue, for example. However now that the waiting time looks like regular browser load time, I'm happy enough not to pursue this further.
If anyone is motivated enough to actually figure out what's going on, I'm happy to discuss more in private. Thanks again!

The problem was caused by the smtp account. My smtp account is not on the same server as the web site. It took some times to send email out using that smtp account. Thanks.
