3:45pm Pacific / 11:45pm GMT — The operations team has implemented a replacement of the affected load balancer and has migrated traffic away from the problematic system.  Message processing times have improved.

Additionally, the operations team has detected sub-optimal network performance within the German datacenter, that has the potential to delay processing of messages for some domains, particularly those that are using the archive service.  The operations team is continuing to monitor this and will take action to mitigate this if necessary.
