Server is slow for me in the past few days. Anyone else feeling the same?

I just realized that it is not a 'scraper', the requests came from the server that I am using to provide an interface to the site as an Onion site. The amount of requests was suspiciously high so maybe a bot is scraping through Tor. I will leave it off for a few days and see if I can turn it back on later.

That's a level of sophistication I hadn't seen - using Tor to scrape. Hopefully they give up soon. I'm glad we got some respite. Thank you!
