 * As noted in [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/media-library-is-slow-lagging-constantly-spinning-or-crashes/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/media-library-is-slow-lagging-constantly-spinning-or-crashes/),
   if you’re seeing a “HTTP error” message in the Media Library (especially after
   trying to upload a SVG image), then it might be a problem between SVG Support
   and php7.
 * The fix, as described in that post, seems to be to install php7.0-xml (with `
   apt-get install php7.0-xml`) then restarting your web server.
