## Updates from Basecamp
### 2020-07-09 12:07 UTC: investigating
We're currently investigating slow background operations that affect moves, copies and chat message publishing in Campfire.

### 2020-07-09 13:05 UTC: investigating
We have isolated a possible cause for the issue and are working on remediation. We're also seeing delays on notifications and it's possible some notifications will end up being duplicated in the Hey menu.

### 2020-07-09 13:33 UTC: resolved
We've cleared the cause that was affecting our database load and background queues are again back to normal levels. Everything should be fine again.
