Identified
Our monitoring indicates there is some occasional but recurring degraded performance on the API. The temporary fixes which were implemented yesterday seem to be working and avoid a total outage however it will incur a slow-down now and then. An issue has been identified by our hosting provider and they are investigating how they can solve this.
