okteto: Okteto CLI - connection seems very slow, app takes 3 minutes to start

Describe the bug Hi!

So we wanted to use your awesome CLI tool to enable cloud development on local machines with ‘okteto up’ to deploy our local files to the cluster. We’ve managed to achieve that but it seems that everything is super slow (I have worked with okteto also in my previous company and I didn’t experience anything like that).

Yaml file is very simple and looks like that:

name: identity-platform
image: okteto/dotnetcore:6
command: ["dotnet", "watch", "--project", "IdentityPlatform", "--", "run", "--configuration", "Debug", "--launch-profile", "okteto"]
workdir: /src
namespace: dev-marcin
remote: 2222
forward:
  - 8080:80
  - 5443:rds-aws:5432
  - 6380:dev-marcin-redis-master:6379
persistentVolume:
  enabled: false

Okteto is quite fast to replace the deployment and it shows the information about context, namespace and forwarded ports but then execution of the command takes 3-5 minutes. The same command takes more or less few seconds locally so it’s not like the application takes so long to start 😃

Any ideas what that might be?

@marcindruzgala closing this one as it’s related to cpu/memory dedicated to the dev container

The resources in the sample are quite small, could you try with:

resources:
  requests:
    cpu: "1"
    memory: "8Gi"
  limits:
    cpu: "2"
    memory: "12Gi"

for example? Also, check the manifest of the dev pod to see if those values are applied.
