Hi,  
I have a small VM (2 cores) running Ubuntu, and I installed the Nextcloud Snap distribution on it, which contains Collabora (or I enabled it via the Nextcloud UI).  
Collabora runs fine and performance is OK for me.  
However when opening a spreadsheet, the two warnings show up:  
`Your server is configured with insufficient hardware resources, which may lead to poor performance. Poorly performing proxying of all network requests.`

I want to silence these warnings, as performance is fine for me and I don’t want to fall to confirmation fatigue and miss any important warnings. So I followed the linked documentation which suggests changing some settings, such as _per\_document.max\_concurrency_.  
From what I read the expected place for such a setting would be /etc/coolwsd/coolwsd.xml, however on my installation I don’t find such a file anywhere.  
Anyone has any suggestion where to look or how to configure settings like this?

As far as I know, Nextcloud Snap does not include Collabora by default, but `richdocumentscode` can be installed via the Nextcloud App Store (also mentioned in the [Nextcloud Snap Wiki](https://github.com/nextcloud-snap/nextcloud-snap/wiki/Configure-CODE-and-Nextcloud-office-for-Nextcloud-snap)).

| App Store Name | App Store ID | Product |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [Nextcloud Office (Collabora)](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocuments) | `richdocuments` | Collabora |
| [Collabora Online - Built-in CODE Server](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocumentscode) | `richdocumentscode` | Collabora |
| [Collabora Online - Built-in CODE Server](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocumentscode_arm64) | `richdocumentscode_arm64` | Collabora |

There is a feature request for `richdocumentscode` to allow a custom `coolwsd.xml`:

I see there's already a dedicated section in the \`/tmp/appimage-extracted???/etc/coolwsd/coolwsd.xml\` file but, I can't find out how to modify it in a persistent way other maybe regenerating the AppImage file with a new config.

Since the feature request is old and still pending, I don’t think that’s possible without tinkering with the code itself. A full installation of Collabora would probably be necessary for that.
