Sorry about this, and thank you for the heads up. The site runs as a PocketBase instance on a small 512mb DigitalOcean droplet in their London DC, and is getting more load than usual at the moment.

I’ll take a look though at whether there’s anything causing fundamental slowness in the cache read / page rendering pipeline.

Looking at chrome dev tools, it looks like it might be the custom font causing the delay. I'm not sure exactly why though.

    Interesting, I’d have naively assumed that’d be cached after first load by Chrome. Definitely one to investigate further.

      Might as well drop custom fonts? This minimalist site would be fine with built in font families.

      I recommend run Google Lighthouse for a single visitor view of perf and then use a load testing tool (locust, jmeter etc. to check load handling)

      If you want to that is :)
