Something weird is going on

[ilyvion]

I noticed I was having trouble loading the full size images on Hachyderm, so I went to the Grafana link that Nova posted yesterday, and noticed that the "pull" Sidekiq queue was growing at an enormous rate. When I first looked at the page, it had gone to a latency of 3 minutes in... 3 minutes and now it's already at 8 a few minutes later. I figure it means something fishy is going on.

Here's a screenshot of what I was seeing for the sake of posterity:

@ineffyble is correct - this AM, multiple instances - including ours - were subjected to a DDoS. We were able to contain ours and have some notes that Nóva published in here thread here:

OP can you let us know if you're still experiencing this issue?

@quintessence Media seem to be loading just fine again. I'll close the issue for now, thanks for the feedback.
