@GeddyWrox totally knew you were just kidding but i was actually attempting to try to turn it off and back on when you posted that
The slowness should be resolved. An ip address tied to alibaba was hitting the site with so much traffic that we were borderline DDOSed. The web host was able to ban traffic from the address and the site speed immediately jumped back.
If you use alibaba for searching GRB this may impact your results though.

Thanks for taking care of this.
The diagnosis is kind of fascinating. I assume this is related to some kind of scam, but what exactly would the scam be? Or maybe alibaba operates some kind of glitchy bots?

ok yeah, me too. it's better than it was earlier but also feels like load times are slow. i'm wondering if GRB is getting pinged again.
