closedPoor performance of lists.opensuse.org - web ui, running very slowly.

Hi,
The web interface to lists.opensuse.org is frequently running very
slowly, with load times of, in some instances, several tens of seconds.
A traceroute to "lists.opensuse.org" shows no appreciable network delay.
Monitoring the page load (with Firefox Developer Tools -> Network) it's
invariably one or more, generally more, of specific "GET" requests.
As an example, this is one which typically will result in a delay:
await
fetch("https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/posted-to"
The forum thread
https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/561827-lists-opensuse-org-a-snail-in-treacle?p=3078227#post3078227
shows the traceroute and some of the offending (slow) requests.
This is not a recent issue, it has been present for a while, the
slowness does vary throughout a twenty-four period, so I would hazard a
guess it's related to server load.
I raised this issue on the openSUSE forums, mainly to see if it was a
local issue or more widespread, and it appears the latter.
Forum administrator (Malcolm Lewis) suggested I raised the issue with
the "Heroes Team".
