Hey everyone,

Might seem rookie but for some reason my collectstatic takes more than an
hour to complete. Some details: the static files are stored on the same VM
as the app, theres no s3 or any such service connected. I looked for
solutions online and found collectfast but wanted to come here and see if
theres anything wrong with my config:

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

if not DEBUG:
# Tell Django to copy statics to the `staticfiles` directory
# in your application directory on Render.
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles')

# Turn on WhiteNoise storage backend that takes care of compressing
static files
# and creating unique names for each version so they can safely be
cached forever.
STATICFILES_STORAGE =
'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'

pretty boilerplate configs

Any suggestions regarding this would be really helpful.
Thank you
