AxiosError: timeout of 30000ms exceeded while trying to see activity for one month #629

Description

@wojnilowicz

While trying to view my activity for 2026-06 at http://localhost:5600/#/activity/your_hostname_here/month/2026-06-01/view/summary
I get
AxiosError: timeout of 30000ms exceeded. See dev console (F12) and/or server logs for more info. and my views hang with "Loading..." in them. Nothing particularly interesting after pressing F12.

  1. My ~/.local/share/activitywatch/aw-server-rust/sqlite.db is 168 MB big and contains data since 2024-01.
  2. After Performance improvements #615 it's not better.
  3. I'm on b199671.
  4. This is a low end machine.
  5. aw-server process gets from 20 MB in RAM to something over 100 MB when trying to display the report. It looks like it's trying to load whole database instead of only the time period that I'm interested in.

This is kind of a wish than a bug: Could ActivityWatch be made so that it doesn't start to time out on reports when there is more data in the database? I remember watching 1 month time periods without problem earlier on.
