FWIW, I switched to self-hosted GitLab in Docker when Microslop borged GitHub and found it to be resource hungry and slow. Seems like it's just a wrapper around their unoptimised, monolithic, warts-and-all enterprise product with a few flags changed.
And it's entirely dependent on the ongoing goodwill (and competence) of GitLab, ie. subject to "we've altered the deal; pray we don't alter it any further".
Migrated it to a Gitea container soon after, which is light and fast. If I was making the same decision today, I'd switch to Forgejo, but that's more of an ideological position than technical or UX one versus Gitea.
