Not my experience at all, in a similarly sized premium on-prem GitLab. I git-push and the pipeline is running faster than I can get to my browser. Jobs queue basically instantly assuming you have enough runners for your workloads.

I have no experience with using the search. On both GL and GH I prefer to just pull the code and search with my preferred local tools.

Personally I find GitLab CI syntax better to work with than GitHub, particularly if using dependency-based versus using stage-based workflow.

Well, they have an epic for improving pipeline creation, so it's not just me:

The reason it is so slow for us is probably because we use a lot of external includes and trigger jobs. But as I said: the problems start once you scale things up. Then you also cannot just "pull the code" for a search, as we also have a lot of repositories.

And before anyone says "monorepo", GL's cicd support for monorepos is piss-poor too.

Can you expand by providing rough size and GL variants you have used with that monolith.
