specific actions, or just generally?
I think it's not specific to any query, but it's generally slow. It seems
that producing result.json is particularly slow. However, running
./compass.py on the VM is also much slower than, e.g., on my laptop (5
seconds vs. 0.5 seconds). We can't blame the web stuff for this.
So, we could try to make compass.py faster, or we could beef up the VM.
Or we could learn the lesson that writing a web wrapper for a command-line
tool doesn't magically produce a good website. I'm leaning towards the
latter and suggest we focus on gsathya's suggestion in
[https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6682#comment:6 #6682] for
providing a faster Compass website.
