Shopping API Timing Out

Calls to the Shopping API since 1:45am PT have been timing out or are very slow especially for calls to FindItemsAdvanced, FindPopularSearches.

SystemError 1.23 "Failure The request timed out."

http://open.api.ebay.com/shopping?callname=FindItemsAdvanced&responseencoding=XML&appid=YourAppId&siteid=0&version=643&ItemSort=BestMatch&MaxEntries=10&IncludeSelector=SellerInfo&QueryKeywords=ipod+nano

http://open.api.ebay.com/shopping?callname=FindPopularSearches&responseencoding=XML&appid=YourAppId&siteid=0&version=643&MaxKeywords=10&CategoryID=19036

Seems the problem has been fixed, for now.

I noticed the same thing, looking over my logs from the past several hours (mostly for FindPopularItems in Shopping API).

Agreed - the problem seems to be history at this point.

It's 4pm in S.C. and whatever the problem was, it's back.
This time it's actually worse.

For me it's findItemsAdvanced. Before lunch it was very slow, and now it's failing without giving error messages.

object(SimpleXMLElement)#1 (3) { ["ack"]=> string(7) "Failure" ["version"]=> string(5) "1.1.0" ["timestamp"]=> string(24) "2009-11-21T20:41:00.208Z" }

It works for an hour, and then it's down for two.

Now it's down, btw.

My calls are working again for the moment, no failures and much speedier.

Ebay folks, please be cautious with the production environment.

Mine still down. Even though now sometimes just returns an "Internal Error" instead of timing out.

FindPopularSearches works good, though.

Calling findPopularItems is currently giving the follow error message:

10.4 Your query would return too many items

Call paramters are:

http://open.api.ebay.com/shopping?callname=FindPopularItems&version=635&CategoryID=353&responseencoding=XML&siteId=3&MaxEntries=20

MaxEntries 20 shouldn't cause any problems at all so I'm assuming that this is related ?
