I had a similar problem with my toilet's cistern filling up very slowly. The plumber came out, said it was a common problem, that the rubber diaphragm needed to be replaced (it loses its suppleness over time). This he did, in less than a minute, and the problem was solved. I could do it myself from now on, it's so easy.

Take a look at from 4:50 onwards in this video.
