Elevated Queued (5+ minute) Responses for Responses API

Hey @bejmorri! Yeah, I can see how that would be frustrating, especially with requests sitting queued for 5–10+ minutes. What @sps shared is the right place to track this. There was a GPT5.5 performance degradation incident reported on May 15, mitigation was applied on May 16, and the status page now shows all impacted services have fully recovered. For future updates on service issues, you can follow along on status.openai.com. If you continue to experience the issue, please let me know and I’ll be happy to take a look. - Sunny
