Delays in Background Processes

We are currently seeing delays in background processes, which is affecting Merge Requests and other features. For more details, check: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/14758

Our Engineers have identified the problem cause and implemented a fix. But we expect multiple pipelines were triggered without automatically canceling the old ones. For details, check: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/14758

The background processes backlog is clear and all features are back to normal but redundant pipeline cancellation is still disabled. We will keep monitoring the systems. For details see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/14758

No material updates to report. Our Engineers keep monitoring the systems, and working on a code fix to enable redundant pipeline cancellation again. For details, see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/14758

Our engineers have identified a potential fix, which is currently being tested. In the meantime, we keep monitoring the situation on the GitLab.com.

The issue is mitigated on Gitlab.com. A fix is being deployed to Gitlab.com. We do not anticipate further updates until the fix is deployed. For further details, check https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/14758
