    The queue for macOS jobs is subsiding as restored capacity continues to come online with our upstream provider, and new 6vcpu and 12vcpu macOS jobs are picking up normally for most customers. A small number of 12vcpu macOS jobs queued earlier today are still being worked through and may take longer to start, while Linux and Windows runners are unaffected. We are continuing to monitor and will resolve this incident once the remaining backlog has cleared.

    New macOS jobs are starting within a few minutes for most customers, though some 6vcpu macOS jobs may wait up to 10 minutes during busy periods while we finish restoring capacity with our upstream provider. A backlog of 12vcpu macOS jobs queued earlier today is still being worked through, and those jobs may take longer to start, while Linux and Windows runners are unaffected.

    6vcpu macOS jobs are now starting within a few minutes, and the backlog of 12vcpu macOS jobs is draining as we continue to add capacity with our upstream provider. Customers with 12vcpu macOS jobs already queued may still see longer waits for them to start, while new jobs are picking up faster, and Linux and Windows runners are unaffected

    Update

    We have brought additional macOS capacity online and queue times have started to improve. Customers should currently expect 6vcpu macOS jobs to wait a few minutes to start and 12vcpu macOS jobs considerably longer, while Linux and Windows runners are unaffected.
