Slow response times from JED

Is it just me or are you guys seeing that the response from the JED API is quite slow ? The way I've done it right now is that the response also get's JCached so the same API URL being called the second time will give an instant response but the first time seems quite slow. I would also attribute this to the erratic behaviour about links opening in new tabs reported by Nick.

Confirmed. But my "server" is no CDN and don't cache.

Just tested on the CDN Staging server and it is still very slow..

With the CDN, it helps a lot when navigating to the same page. Also, I suspect the CDN is most useful when others in the region are also navigating, otherwise it's not as useful. Since we're on staging, we're unlikely to see that effect.

Either way, it still seems to be significantly slower than previously.
