Hello! We're working hard on performance issue each release, our team is aware about this problem.
John unfortunately i have a bad news - we can't restart server now. It's quite risky and dangerous operation. Our guys are researching this problem (I mean your current problem) and trying to find a way to help you with this. If fix of this problem won't affect main functionality then we'll push hot fix on production, but if it requires big fix (and testing all functionality as consequences of this fix) then it will take much more time (till late August). For now you can try to work with workaround Max suggested and I'll keep you informed about our progress on this problem.
