A slow pile usually needs a small adjustment.
Fixes
- Too dry: add water as you turn it
- Too many browns: add greens like grass clippings or coffee grounds
- Pieces too big: chop or shred them
- Pile too small: add more material at once
- Cold weather: it slows down in winter and picks up in spring
