Starting yesterday, I've noticed some intermittent latency issues. My FSD will countdown to 0, but take another 5 seconds to actually do anything, ships will skip around, both in superdrive and in actual combat (less so in combat) and earlier today I even got interdicted by someone... permanently. I was stuck in the interdiction mini-game for a few minutes (I submitted, I love a good fight.) before I just exited and re-entered the game.
My connection is clean as a whistle, no packet loss, high throughput/bandwidth:

And it's only intermittent, typically only for about 20 minutes at a time. I've actually waited for it to happen to test my line to see if maybe Steam is downloading or someone's uploading, but it doesn't appear to be on my end, even running other online games at the same time, the other game would be silky smooth and ships would be twitching like mad (Even NPC ships, bizarrely.) in Elite. Are the servers having issues? The first several days I played were immaculate, no shipping skips, FSD was instant when it hit 0, now it's... a little annoying. The skipping ships in combat is particularly bad.
Summary: I'm very specifically talking about latency, the game is running at a very high FPS, and the problem JUST started yesterday. Skipping ships, FSD delays, bad.
