Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hi @yaireo, the slowness on that run came from our model provider’s side, not from your prompt or setup.

We looked up the request: most of the model calls in that refactor were answered in a second or two, but three of them sat waiting 1.5 to 3 minutes before any response came back, which is why a small task took around 7 minutes.

This should be fixed now.
