Ok, the issue appears to be bots using VPNs (secure proxies). For the time being I'm blocking VPNs until I figure out a way to identify the bad actors. Queries per second dropped from 120+ to about 10 -- that's how bad the bots are hitting the site. If you're using a VPN I apologize. NostrGram won't work for you while I work on this issue.
