Hi. I think the website is just overloaded at this point. I am using the free tier on Heroku, so it can only handle so much. I don't expect anything to change unless people start donating. I would suggest that you try hosting the app yourself, which should make it a lot more stable if you are the only user.

With the new caching code (#43), response times are once again low / "normal". The website is finally usable again. Keep in mind that the website may be slow-ish once a day when Heroku restarts the dyno. This might be possible to mitigate by saving the cache between restarts somehow, but for now this is not super important to address.
