Must-share information (formatted with [Markdown](https://commonmark.org/help/)):

- version 8.9.2
- how is SonarQube deployed: Helm
- what are you trying to achieve : Every time pod restarts \*\*sonarqube dashboard says “Sonarqube is reloading project data, some projects will be unavailable until the process is completed.\*, it takes around 40 mins to reload all project data.  
Questions: why it takes this much time after every restart? Is there any way to avoid this? or it is normal to take this much of time after every pod restarts?

Hi,

Your version is past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:

> 8.9.2 → 9.9.2 → 10.2.1 (last step optional)

If you have questions about upgrading, feel free to open a new thread for that [here](https://community.sonarsource.com/c/sq/9-9-lts-upgrade/47).
