Hi Alex, Very interesting, and thanks for sharing. I wouldn’t have thought that was a widespread issue. Sharing my outage stats, recorded in Prometheus/Grafana (1min resolution) for the hour between 21:30 and 22:30 UTC. In addition to system load, the effects correlate to block height, density, mempool, sync speed, etc. Cardano just released a patch with [node v1.26.2](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-node/releases/tag/1.26.2) that should resolve the issue. We better upgrade before the next Epoch boundary… Cheers, Frank ![TAMA stakepool monitoring epoch 260 cutover outage](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/cardano/original/3X/7/c/7c84c93e3d5fddbe8df5362e099263081bf81ec9.png)
