Capsule running slow

Capsule is running slow for some users this morning sorry. We are working on it. 

Update: 9:45 GMT

The slow down is due to increased latency on a storage volume.  Performance has improved over the last 30 minutes, but is still reduced.  We have raised a support case with our infrastructure provider (Amazon Web Services) to investigate the latency on the storage volume.

Update 10:00 GMT

Amazon have confirmed they are investigating increased latencies for a subset of EBS volumes. According to our own monitoring, performance is just about back to normal levels.

Update 12:15 GMT

Amazon have confirmed performance is back to normal which correlates with what we are seeing.  Sorry for slow patch earlier today.

Investigating slow performance

We’re currently seeing reports of slow performance and investigating. 

Updated 18:50 GMT

We’ve tracked down the cause of this.  Unfortunately one of our scheduled backup process took longer than expected, and a subsequent scheduled backup process started before the first completed.  The result was two very slow running backup processes running in parallel which severely degraded the performance of the system.

Sorry for the very slow performance of Capsule over the past 40 minutes.  We are updating our scripts and processes to ensure this problem doesn’t happen again.
