Anyone else having problems with AWS Lambda timeouts?

We're in the AWS Oregon datacenter and are facing over 2 minute execution times just for a simple OPTIONS CORS call to our app that is usually instant. Obviously this is terrible especially given how AWS Gateway times out after only 30 seconds. Support is pretending like it's not happening - anyone else out there struggling today (2021-10-05)?

Currently AWS is stating it is only happening in the EU-WEST-1 datacenter but I think it's more widespread as it's happening in ours:

"[11:49 AM PDT] We continue to experience increased invoke timeouts and elevated latencies for a small proportion of AWS Lambda functions in the EU-WEST-1 Region. The issue affects a subset of functions making API calls to other AWS services within the region. At this point we have not identified any workarounds for affected Lambda functions, and we continue to investigate possible networking issues in a section of the AWS Lambda compute subsystem. We will make more information about our mitigation plan available as soon as we have more information to share."

Yeah. I'm seeing the same thing.
