One would need to analyze the web-server logs to figure what is going on. If DOS, DDOS, crawler/scraper, valid user requests.
There are several web-server modules and Linux server configurations which can be tuned more aggressively, but I would prefer to not discuss certain TC security measurements in the public.
I myself have no time in spare to engage atm in TC server operations and solve this case.

Another possibility is that the host the TC virtual private server is running on is overbooked and overloaded. As mentioned, one would need to take a look into log files etc.
HGM just publish the log files here, please. Not claiming to be an expert on Linux server log files, but I'm sure the chatbots will be able to explain them!

You will have to live monitor the system + watch the log files during an actual slowdown.
66666 views now for this thread. If most of you see the site very slow, apparently not for everyone. Yesterday it was slow, just for a moment only. But three days very fast here. Very strange. I hope it is not something on my end... System still thinking I'm Fernando? I changed browsers a bit but that's it. Logging in sporadically maybe helps or leaving some remember keys? Or maybe actually refreshing them I don't know.
Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
