Deploying new versions of functions suddenly gets stuck in processing for several minutes

Normal build time is 10-15s.

Changes are updated dependency versions with adjustments to implementation accordingly:

TypeScript
  "dependencies": {
    "expo-server-sdk": "^3.11.0",
    "node-appwrite": "^14.1.0"
  },

Latest deploy has been in "processing" for 7 minutes now.

TL;DR
Developers are experiencing delays when deploying new versions of functions, with 'processing' status lasting several minutes. Solution: To resolve this, simply add "queued" alongside "processing." Further suggestions made include adding tooltips in the free-tier to explain consequences and potential upselling opportunities for improved services. The delay was identified as a low-priority queue issue for the free tier, with normal build times between 10-15 seconds. The latest deployment took 12 minutes. The update involved updating dependency versions for "expo-server-sdk" and "node-appwrite."

It finished deploying after 12 minutes apparently. Is this some kind of low priority queue thing for free tier perhaps?

gotcha, you might want to put up corresponding tooltips in free-tier of possible consequences. It's quite confusing and can lead to useless troubleshooting of code. It's also a pretty obvious opportunity to upsell your customers to better services with some banners or something instead of just creating frustration and support tickets. I can't find anything in my deployment view about it at least.

cool, nice to get a quick response. Should I be marking this as resolved somehow?

simply adding "queued" in addition to "processing" would probably be the simplest solution

with some call to action to upgrade your plan from there perhaps

you can close if the query is resolved. I've anyways shared this with the team.
