Describe the Bug

The Site Target Docker Selector does not display any information when the docker container count is greater than 20-22 containers.

Did a test with a new connection and debug logs enabled with 55 containers enabled.

Dropped the container count down to 5 and the display worked as it should. Slowly increasing to 20-22 and the display stopped working.

Environment

  • OS Type & Version: Ubuntu 24.04
  • Pangolin Version: 1.13.0
  • Gerbil Version: 1.2.2
  • Traefik Version: 3.6.4
  • Newt Version: 1.7.0
  • Olm Version: NA

Also using Socket-Proxy for the docker socket connection.

To Reproduce

Bring up more than 20+ containers in Docker. This will, at least in my environment, will prevent this containers from showing in Pangolin.

Expected Behavior

Pangolin Site should display all docker containers when using the target docker selector.
