Strange Fortune publishing delay

Hello -
My comic was scheduled to publish today at 1:45 EDT. I saw the message about publications being backed up, and wondered if we're talking hours or days? As an independent publisher I notice tons of comics going in for bigger established publishers. Is this causing the back up? Just trying to stick up for the little guys here.

Hi @digitaldemiurge,

In general, upload processing is fairly quick. Whenever you see that message it just means that there's a large queue of processing tasks at that point in time. If there are delays, it's usually going to be minutes or hours rather than days.

We noticed it did have an impact at the end of last week, so we expanded how many "task workers" were available to help process BOOM! and Archie faster. Normally this isn't a problem, but we ended up importing far more pages than we anticipated.
