Yes, I have also noticed the general slowness of our instance. Last week
I identified the cause as being the fact that it is being hosted on an
AArch64 box, which apparently isn't a configuration that is very well
supported by the Ruby interpreter's optimised implementation.

The same instance running on x86_64 is much more responsive [1].

Cheers,
