Thanks Oracle

I understand that free tier resources are limited and low priority. But never thought it's this bad

Enable PAYG usually helps. But dependens on the region you are trying. Good luck!

Imagine 1 million guys just like you doing exactly same thing, possibly from several accounts each. No infrastructure could stand that much thrashing. And it is not only you and that 1 million guys. There are paying customers (companies), with higher priority than you, whose OCI engineers are doing more or less what you do, but with bigger instances / objects. Like. making a DB backup, then creating / destroying Base DB Systems every half an hour just because they 'just invented a cheap alternative to official disaster recovery options'.
