@cabbonizio, you can pass any valid Swagger-UI configuration item to Swagger-Editor, and it will hand off the value to the underlying Swagger-UI instance 😄 Setting docExpansion: "none" or defaultModelExpandDepth: 0 should help with your specific issue.

@niculistana my apologies! I have seen that email, I just didn’t put two and two together here 😄

As Ron mentioned, we did look at your definition, and found the bottleneck to be in Swagger-Client’s dereferencing plugin, which takes ~30 seconds to run. This appears to be the source of the lion’s share of the slowness you’re seeing.

We do know of ways to improve that area of Swagger-Client, and the level of slowness there puts it pretty high on our performance todo list, but I can’t give an ETA on it being fixed.

In the meantime, reducing your $ref density and splitting your definition into parts is a good stopgap measure.
