Yep, just finished setting up sliding-sync myself (I’m old fashioned so I still use Apache 😄)
The initial sync was slower, but even slower for me as the initial sync caused RAM spikes leading to the OOM killer sneaking in. Had to set up a swap file to temporarily get past it.
Also, note that the initial sync is slow because it does a full V2 sync to the proxy first, only then can you start with V3/Sliding-Sync.
But, Element X seems fun! Not ready to be a daily driver for me (I really need proper spaces support for the way I use Matrix), but damn if the new loads aren’t sweet.
Edit: Oh man, just installed Element X on another device to test a “clean” login (since the V2 sync is already completed, now). Probably took ~5s from first time logging in to seeing every chat/message. Goddamn that’s sexy. I’m a happy camper, right now.
