Entire Site Incredibly Slow

Everything on the site is taking an extremely (unusually) long time to load. Seems to have started for me about 15 minutes ago. "Search your books" in particular takes several minutes of spinning and then returns 504 Gateway Time-out

There is no need to post three times about the same bug.

That wasn't intentional. The page kept stalling and then reporting "duplicate post" even before it confirmed that it HAD posted. I noticed the triplicate posting as soon as the page finally did finish loading, but there is apparently no way for me to delete the duplicates entirely.

Today, i confirm...

>4 JMK2020S: Yes. I'm trying to update my catalog and it's maddening. I'm going to have to give up on LT for now and go do something else. Very frustrating.

Also slow for me

Me too.

I can't access scanned covers to add to a new work. Microsoft not responding.

Better now ;-)

Well, it seems it's better.

I note however that the problem of site slowness is more and more frequent in recent weeks
I then give up what was in progress ... it's enough (or very annoying)

I still want to put things into perspective: the institutional (government) site of the national library of France and access to its catalog is very very often inaccessible !!!

Exemple at time : https://data.bnf.fr/fr/search?term=Edmond+Buat

https://data.bnf.fr/fr/search?term=frederic+guelton

with this msg :
"Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /fr/search.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

A few thoughts:

1. I don't see this in any of the data accessible to me.
2. On the contrary, we recently made a change that's cut out average page time (for signed-in users) almost in half. So I'm alarmed to hear of problems.
3. I'll check with Pedro on Monday about this. We are supposed to have checks outside our firewall now, so he should have data.

Possibly related reports to look at here, re: site slowness and various 500 errors:

ETA: sorry, I haven't had enough coffee this morning. Just noting that 504/500 errors are not the same.

The site has also been slow for me the past few days. It's always been slow going from the addbooks page to editing the specific page of the book I just added, but then it speeds up after a while.
