We are aware that site performance on *.Drupal.org is degraded at the moment. The team is investigating. We are fairly confident this has not been caused by the recent infra maintenance windows, but we are seeing extremely high load and are trying to identify and manage abusive traffic as well as scaling up resources as necessary. Unfortunately abusive traffic targets us multiple times a week (and yes, we do have bot protection, WAF protection, CDN, etc)
Abusive traffic has been mitigated. We have also updated our scaling configuration to better handle this situation in future, now that we have the tools to do that following the recent maintenance windows.
