Great advice, thank you Oskar.

Could you tell me how long it takes to load the WMS into qgis or GetCap with that many layers?
I am also interested in what purpose you are using the WMS with this amount of data. Could you share it? In my case it is daily Sentinel-1 imagery for the whole world from the beginning of 2021.

Merry Christmas to all,
Marcin

Hello!

I have 3234 layers in a service and it works fine. also works fine with
10.000 layers

1 try the getcap in browser
2a if step 1 is success change network timeout in qgis
2b if step 1 does not work change timeouts on server and check mapserver
