Extremely slow querying to an external database
So I noticed that when I use Railway's database service, my app is quite fast.
When I switch to my database string to use an external database hosted on Amazon RDS in us-west (N. California), loading any page takes 1000-3000ms.
Of course I do expect the querying to be slower than using Railway's on-site database. But this level of latency is insane.
Any idea on what's causing this?

Try restarting the external database? Not sure what to suggest really 🤔
