Stat delays ongoing

The delay in the stats seems to be worse than ever for me, the campaign summary page shows x clicks but the groups show 0 clicks for hours afterwards until it eventually catches up.

Logging in is V slow as well, any ideas on when its going to be back up to speed?

Ben.

I've had no problems so far this morning

I'll see what happens with this thread for a bit, then alert engineering if it seems that there is an issue at work.

Thanks, as always, for your alertness. ;)

We're running into the same situation as benflux. Our account has a lot of keywords/adgroups; perhaps its only affecting those of us with an unwieldy amount of data.

I've not had any problems either. I have many accounts with a lot of adgroups, but no single adgroup has a lot of KWs in it.

I haven't advertised with adwords for a while but thought I would give it a go, since google's kind donations at WebmasterWorld Conference!

How long do the stats generally take to update nowadays?

p.s. Nice to meet many of you over the last few days :)

A few of mine have up to 2k keywords. I also have about 200+ Adgroups.

The info below has appeared a time or two on this forum, but it may be worth repeating here - since we are talking about odd account issues:

There are some suggested limits regarding number of Ad Groups and keywords, which if exceeded may cause sluggish navigation, and other issues.

These suggested limits are:
* 100 Ad Groups per campaign.
* Maximum of 2000 keywords per campaign, counted over all Ad Groups.
* Maximum of 750 keywords for a single Ad Group (while still keeping in mind the above mentioned max of 2000 per campaign).

So that could well be part of the problem in this case:

A few of mine have up to 2k keywords. I also have about 200+ Adgroups.

edit: fixed typo. I hate those things!

Nice!

I sure wish I could've been there. I'm going to start talking it up now, to make sure I am there next time!

Stats run about three hours behind under normal circumstances, and I'm not aware of any issues at work presently, that would make it different.
