### Q. Chunks (tiles) are loading in really slowly
This is almost entirely dependent on the network speed between your server and your own computer.

You can debug this by using your browser's built-in developer tools (Network tab) to check how long each request is taking, and where the bottleneck is.

If you're certain that speed is adequate, make sure you're on the latest version of BlueMap.
BlueMap needs to convert your world's chunks to 3D model files. (We often refer to this process as "rendering".)
If you have just installed BlueMap, this might take a while, because it is the first time.
You can check the progress with `/bluemap`. You may just have to wait for the chunks to finish being converted.

Once the 3D model files have been generated, they are stored on your server.
They then get requested from people visiting your BlueMap website.
