Is anyone else seeing a spinning circles of death when posting today?

It's taking a quite a long time to submit a post.

It wasn't slow for me when I used the site. Nor is it slow at the moment for me. So I missed that happening :)
Anyway, I would need to look at the log files to see what was going on. Was it a continuous thing? Or was it during specific time intervals?

It was throughout the day yesterday for me. All posts were slow.

EDIT: This post today was lickity split.
Yeah me too but it was mostly in the morning for me.

So from 8:00AM to 1:00PM (EDT).

Today though I had no slowdowns.

Seems to have been happening a little again today.

I know anything beyond a paragraph is a wall to some of our resident one-liner masters - but I promise it wasn't me this time! ;)
 
There is a timeslot between 7:30 and 7:45 in the morning where the server does a lot of backups and repeatedly disables and enables the database. It can be quite slow around that timeframe on a daily basis.

How many posts are needed for them to appear immediately instead of waiting moderation approval? Can't find rules anywhere.
