We have identified a remediation strategy that appears to be improving performance back to normal levels. We are applying the fix and monitoring for any other performance regressions.

Update
The background work associated with this database maintenance is taking longer than expected. We are actively investigating other options to improve the situation.

Update
We've determined the underlying cause: general degradation to database performance causing requests to timeout.
Our database provider informed us that once the background work initiated via maintenance on their side subsides, we should see performance improve.
Unfortunately, that will take over 8 hours.
We'll keep you posted as we learn more.

Update
It appears that database provider maintenance changes from earlier are the underlying cause of the intermittent errors with certain types of compile requests (mostly from the Web IDE). We are in conversations with them now to see if they can expedite the recovery process

Update
We are continuing to monitor for any further issues.
