We are continuing to investigate this issue. Logs indicate that there is an ongoing DDOS attack targeting the Rebrandly redirection system. Link redirection is experiencing a high latency as a consequence of the high traffic producing stress in the system. Expecting 50% of the requests to be served with higher-than-usual latency.
