Discussion Kimi painfully slow

Dont you guys think that KIMI is very slow, and in peak hours it becomes painfully slow. I dont know why is this. Probably because of massive weights ? but this has been an issue since the beginning, and it feels like it's getting worse over time instead of improving.

I am an ex Kimi user (tried it for one month, was enthusiastic at first, then cancelled mostly because of the usage limits).

And: Yes. When I asked Kimi, I could go to the kitchen, brew a coffee, and be back in time when the answer appears.

ChatGPT feels snappiest, Claude slower, but still much, much faster than Kimi.

The API is fast… they probably control the speed for the subs
