Yes, it should be stand alone. I initially had a similar issue but at loading the initial lists, not loading the actual show. For me turning off Plex data caching helped, although counter intuitive. Divide long recording lists into pages also didn't seem to work so I turned it off too. I also left the experimental features off. 

It works very well for me now. (Fixes 0.27).

Try changing some of the settings and see if anything helps.

Otherwise there are Plex log files, they vary based on OS but would probably need to start delving into those to try and work out more.
