## Updates from Grafana Cloud
### 2026-05-18 08:24 UTC: investigating
We’re currently investigating an issue that is resulting in degraded performance in metrics processing and test run metrics may take longer than usual to show up. Our team is actively working to identify the cause. Thank you for your patience.

### 2026-05-18 10:27 UTC: investigating
We have identified that test runs are getting timed out as a result of the issue
This issue first occurred on May 05/15/2026 at 8:00PM UTC.

### 2026-05-18 14:30 UTC: monitoring
We've stabilized the system and test runs no longer result in timeout. There is a small delay (a few minutes) in processing metrics at the end of the test run, but most users shouldn't be too negatively impacted by that. We expected the delay/lag to also resolve within the next 30-60 minutes.

### 2026-05-18 15:42 UTC: resolved
This incident has been resolved.
