There is a 12 second delay when you first go to connect.academy #123

This delay happens when you were logged in and it resumes with you logged in. When you do it as signed out users, it is quicker. Then if you go to the site a second, third time etc, there is are NO delay issues.

Yes, this is a problem with the way we are using heroku. The instance (our server) is being shut down if no one is using the website. When someone accesses the link, the instance is being rebooted. That's why its taking a lot of time to boot the first time.

We can fix this by asking for 2 instances that are always up. That would cost 35 $/month

In that case it's fine. Coz it means it won't be a problem if there are users around, so it's good practice to save resources.
