Possible performance degradation related to push events on Staging
The QA smoke tests are currently failing on Staging because push events are being reported much more slowly than usual: gitlab-org/gitlab#34265 (closed)
The problem can be reproduced in at least two places pretty easily:
- Push a commit
- View the project activity
Usually the activity page shows the push event almost immediately, but now it takes more than 10 seconds. (The tests are set to time out if the expected event doesn't appear within 10 seconds. The tests pass if the time out is increased to 60 seconds. A test that previously took 20 seconds now takes over 2 minutes.)
Or
- Push a new branch
- View the project details page and wait for the "Create merge request" button to appear.
The button also normally appears quite quickly, but now it also takes long enough to suspect something has gone wrong.
