I recently posted a question about Plesk Migration speed (Question - Plesk Migration Obsidian to Obsidian: How Long To Expect?). It appears to be that it's a specific subscription that's bugged. Other subscriptions, even ones containing substantially more data, are migrating just fine. On the other hand, this one is slow even after I removed a bunch of files from it in order to scp them over manually later. So it is not a factor of size on disk. I am truly stumped by this. The migration in question gets stuck during the check step, at the following point, without fail, every time.
I don't know where to even begin troubleshooting this.
Code:
