Catalyst, macOS and weird request latency (only when using Safari)Just wondering if anyone else has managed to resolve a similar issue to the one I am facing below?

I've installed the latest version of Catalyst under a PerlBrew environment (v5.38.2) and I'm working through the Catalyst manual. I can run the generated script/app_server.pl with no modifications at all and everything seems ok. That is, until I connect Safari to http://0.0.0.0:3000/r/perl/.rss as directed.

For some reason unknown to me, there is a roughly 30-second delay until the page is rendered. There are no Safari extensions enabled and there is no indication of any issue in Catalyst's console-logging.

Safari Inspector Network Responses

I do not see this delay when issuing the same request from my Chromium-based browser (Brave). The response is instant.

I know the simple answer is to stop using Safari. Does anyone have any insights to share about what the problem might be with Safari? Other environmental factors: macOS Sonoma 14.5, running Catalyst under zsh in a tmux window.

Thanks.
