Anyone have any experience with TubeArchivist? (sh.itjust.works)

Ive got a lot of downloaded YouTube videos. I used to play them through Plex back when I ran that, but once I switched to Jellyfin there wasn't a good way to set them up at all. So I was super excited when I found TubeArchivist. All the posts I saw on it seemed to be positive, so I set it up yesterday in Docker.

It seemed to work alright at first, but it took a really long time for the server to start up once I started running the containers. I'm also running Navisphere, Jellyfin, Kiwix, and a Tor snowflake node, which all booted up instantly, but this took 5-10 minutes to be accessible. It also took like twice the Docker resources of all my other containers just to run.

Doing anything in it was super slow too. Logging in was unresponsive, took a couple minutes to load. There was no feedback either so I thought it was just frozen. I had all my videos I had downloaded previously, so I tried importing them and that just brought my system to a complete crawl. It maxed out Dockers allocated resources, even exceeding the CPU allocation. It also caused Docker to crash twice.

Does anyone have any experience with this program? Did I do something wrong in my docker-compose file (I just modified the example in the github repository) or is the program just super poorly optimized? I've been able to run all the other containers on my system just fine. It has a lot of the same functionality as Jellyfin, which does not do this kind of crap. I was so excited but its been a huge letdown. Any thoughts?

Don't have the same problems as yours. My only issue with TA is that it's very picky about the ES and Redis version, so currently I pin them to a specific build. I do worry that one day TA will be updated so much that it won't support older builds of ES and Redis and my whole thing may break.

But when it works, it works perfectly, giving Jellyfin all the metadata to display them neatly (with the TA plugin of course).

You guys are giving me hope, I just have no idea where to begin. Lol.
