We use gazer to port (copy) dashboards/looks from our staging Looker instance to our production Looker instance. We noticed that during the week of September 18th, our Git Action (which runs Gazer) began taking a lot longer. We used to average 1.5-3 ...

Wow, this is surprising. Thanks for pointing this out.We ran into this issue and can't believe this has been how we've had our dashboards set for years. Most of users were in 1 time zone, so we never noticed until someone in a different time zone poi...
