Basically it was an internal process which had hit some limit that was causing the servers to overload. Elad made some adjustments which will hopefully prevent further timeout errors.

If there's a problem at the DU end, there are only two people to diagnose and fix things. Many places I worked, I was the only one on the spot, but at others, we had a team of 3 or 4, and could call in the network people.

Patience!
