@schlerf, library size affects the speed of execution a bit -- the entire list of a given media type (e.g., movies) is sent for every play and library query. These days that shouldn't be a problem, but it's possible Amazon is throttling bandwidth.
I run everything locally and it all executes on the order of hundreds of millseconds, not seconds. So, I don't think it's inherently something wrong with the skill.
You're not alone with sluggish Lambda performance, as you've seen in other posts. If it's Amazon's fault, there's not much we can do about it. But there are a few things you can check:
1) Your upload speed. Kodi is transmitting the list of movies to Amazon via the internet, so you're uplink bandwidth matters here,
2) Is any hardware related to the Kodi installation going to sleep or any other power-saving mode?
3) If you request the list of movies by hand via cURL (see previous posts for command), how long does it take?
