Am I the only one who finds the OPNsense UI slower than pfSense's on the same hardware?

I've been running both firewalls in VMs for testing on identical hardware. The performance difference in the web UI is noticeable to me.

OPNsense feels sluggish when navigating menus, especially after a fresh login. Clicking between sections like "Firewall" and "Services" has a slight but consistent lag that pfSense doesn't have. Has anyone else benchmarked this or found specific settings that improve responsiveness?
