Why, all of a sudden, is it taking a minimum of 70 seconds to retrieve any information from the API?

Hi all,

I have written an application that collates data from the AW API (PHP SOAP). At random times through development, and with literally no changes to the code, connection or environment the response time for the api has gone from being almost instantaneous to a MINIMUM of 70 seconds. Why is this happening?

Hi Chris,

There is currently no known issues that may have caused the delay in your requests using the AdWords API. Additionally, the delay might be due to processing huge amounts of data in your requests. However, in order to better investigate, could you provide your clientCustomerId and the generated SOAP request and response when you encountered the delays? You may respond via the Reply privately to author option.
