Hello @chaxg and thank you for your interest in this Actor!

The problem you have encountered was most likely caused by some random proxy / network / server issue.

Rerunning the Actor with your input resulted in a 20-second run with one result, just like expected. The only difference is that I switched to PRODUCTION mode - the DEVELOPMENT mode requires much more setup and can slow down your Actor even more. See my Actor rerun here: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/Zw5sEx7kPmyPwhve7

I'll close this issue now, but feel free to reopen it with more questions if the problem still persists. Thanks!
