Anyone else seeing slow AO3 notifs? I'm getting comment emails a good 2-3 hours behind when they show up in my inbox on AO3.

Haven't had a comment yet, but kudos emails seem to be coming once per 2 days for me lately...?

Isn't that always the case? I thought that was the norm.

The biggest lag I remember seeing in previous rounds was maybe half an hour or thereabouts. Maybe I've just been lucky or not noticed?

I just checked my email again, and I still have no comment email for a comment that was left over 4 hours ago. (Mostly I'm annoyed because I'm at work and can check email but not my AO3 account.)

SC Haha, there, it just popped into my inbox as I was hitting post. Based on the time stamps, it was 4:15 between the comment being left and the email getting sent.

I haven't noticed that issue yet, but when I kudosed one fic, the list with the user names and guest kudos didn't update, even though it told me I had already kudosed when I tried again.

According to Morbane on the discord last night, there was an AO3 update (I'm assuming that's what the number thing was, anyway) to cache work and bookmark counts and only update every half hour or so to take stress off Elasticsearch. I'll bet this is the same thing.

Yeah, they've been slow for me. Usually I get comment notifications within a minute or two of comments being left, but last night it took a few hours for some of them to show up.

Yep. I've been noticing a 2 hour lag for all email notifs of comments, gifts, etc. starting around the 24th of Dec. It could be worse now.

I get 4+ hours minimum delay! I just opened my fics' pages and I refresh them if I want to see any live action.

I usually constantly refresh the stats page, but I gave up this Yuletide. Maybe the fic I wrote will eventually reach ten hits? Only three more to go!

I’ve had no kudos or comments in a small but not dead fandom since morning, but somehow a stranger recced my fic today without leaving a visible trace on their presence on it. I’m hoping it’s an AO3 hiccup and my kudos will all dump soon.
