Gemini 2.5 flash api EXTREMELY slow? (18 seconds...)

Hello, im trying to figure out how and why my api call is so extremely slow? The task is literally take this text (“HEY HOW ARE YOU??”) and rewrite it more friendly and this takes 18 seconds to complete?

Is there any way to speed things up or what am i missing?

Is this while you’re initializing the API connector or when you’re using this in your Bubble workflow?

Hey @Zeroic, in the workflow, the API connector is within a few seconds id say

Interesting, yeah it could be a Bubble issue if the API connector is working fine. Did you try raising a bug here with support?

No not yet, just thought i might had been doing something wrong or some setting somewhere
