Database machine issue 1 month ago

A monitoring process on one of our database machines spiraled out of control, causing the machine to become unresponsive. We’ve killed the process and are working on restoring services. Thank you for your patience.

Update: and we’re back. Load times may be a bit slow until all services have restarted.
