Practice Mode Computer Stuck Thinking

Hello, when I go to practive Bishop and Knight checkmate, the computer never makes a move and is stuck "Thinking". Is there any way for me to resolve this or is it a server issue? Thanks

Update: When I was searching for solutions the computer did eventually make a move in the other tab. It took quite a while to load, especially compared to the other practice modes. The bot has 512 MB of memory available and and 8 threads on my Desktop CPU. The other modes evaluate and play a move nearly immediately.

I was getting a similar slow response to continuations after practising tactics and getting the solution - computer was stuck thinking forever

EDIT: It really seems to get stuck when the computer is losing, after solving a tactics puzzle and trying to finish out the new few moves, when the user is clearly winning the computer used to just quickly play moves to get it over with, but now it seems like it really takes its time to try to salvage a completely lost position

Same is happening to me. I don't recall this being an issue yesterday. Seems like a new bug. Hopefully resolved soon.
