This is a healthy pace. There have been some critically missing features until recently (e.g., ability to prove what the counterparty wrote in a chat) and some problems with Tor (e.g., DDoS attacks or other service degradation). And then the ability for on-chain submarine swap for the buyer just came out as well. The chat issue is now resolved (when using Tor), and now I2P support is coming along.
So it is best that growth isn't too fast to where support for issues isn't too high that no development work can be done.
