Always on task not working
   ultraxshaolin Please check the help page linked above. I see multiple tasks on your account but only one in state Starting . That most probably means that the script is somehow broken and it starts, than crashes and re-starts again. I suggest adding more logging, or debugging it in a Bash console...

Always On Task Stuck In Preparing To Start
   After recent maintenance, many always-on tasks were queued to restart at the same time, which can cause tasks to sit in preparing to start for longer than usual. They will start automatically once capacity frees up, no action is needed on your side. This was briefly worsened by a burst of abnormal...

Very slow page load times
   In this case, the slowdown you were seeing on cache misses did line up with an issue on the MySQL server side, rather than anything you had misconfigured in Django or Wagtail. Once the MySQL issue was resolved, response times should have returned to normal. If you’re still seeing unusually slow...

PythonAnywhere website hosted website slow
   There were two overlapping issues around that time: a burst of abnormal traffic, and some post-deployment load effects that briefly amplified the impact.

   Hello I also experience a similar issue.
