I use exclusively Bisq for trading (no alternative currently and I don't want to use a marketplace), but it's a nightmare and I'm even thinking of abandoning it simply because it's nearly unusable.

When you open the software, it starts, no problem. The nightmare starts when synchronizing the DAO. After it's' sync'ed it's better but it can take hooouuuurrrs. Sometimes directly while connecting to the BTC network.

My machine becomes unusable, the computer can stay 1 or 2 hours or more completely freezing my laptop. I can't do anything else, not even open the tasks manager, not even close Bisq. The only solution is to do a hard reboot.

I know very well that if you do a lot of transactions this can be the cause, but even when I delete Bisq and reinstall it with my wallet back up. It gets better for 2-3 days and then it starts again.

I have 4-6Gb ram which should be totally sufficient for this type of software.

I've been using it for a while now. If I have 6 days to confirm the TX (you know what I mean), I have to anticipate 2-3 days before to be sure to be in time.

I have considered renting a VPS to run it, but it would have to have enough power. i.e: A small VPS with 2GB RAM will certainly not do the trick, especially if the resources are shared (OpenVZ). Even with KVM anyway

I used it a couple of times in the past year and had a somewhat similar experience; Based on my research, it was due to their buggy software.
- Having said that, I was still able to open my task manager and do other things while experiencing those stuttering issues from time to time so I'm guessing it might "also" be due to other laptop components [your ram is indeed more than enough] leading to bottlenecking problems. I'm guessing your drivers are up to date and your laptop has been cleaned recently [good air flow], am I right [might help slightly]?

Some of my specs back then [still the same]:
  • Ram = 32GB
  • CPU = Ryzen 7 2700X
  • Storage = NVMe
