I used it 6-8 years ago on-prem. I remember hearing it needed a rather beefy server and I don't remember it behaving particularly fast but it wasn't particularly slow, either. My jobs in-between didn't use Jira, but my most recent one uses the hosted version--it's very, very slow. What's annoying is it doesn't seem to cache either, so a second reload or navigating around is also slow. I only read this in passing, but I heard it's the growing pains of changing a codebase intended to run on a single-server and trying to rebuild it into "services" that scale.
