NOM website incredibly slow

Is it just me or does the NOM site load incredibly slow? Like 30 seconds to load a page slow.
I'm guessing it's slow because there are lots of bots scraping the site to the point where it's like the site is under a DDOS attack. I was hoping the bots crawling the site would eventually get everything and things would get better but the slowness has been an issue for a long time now.
Could an admin maybe look into blocking the Semrush bot and possibly other bots to see if the site load times improve?
