It's definitely load-related - as the start of the business day rolls across the US, load goes up. We've seen slowdowns in the past, but this week seems to be affecting the server more severely than we've seen before.

The work we did yesterday certainly helped, but didn't completely eliminate the lag this morning. We had some architectural changes planned for this week anyway to help with the problem - we're proceeding with those and taking some additional steps as well.

We'll stay on it until the problem is resolved, of course. Apologies for the inconvenience!
