We identified the source of the abnormal search trafic and are working on a solution

Search functionality has been restored and volume timeouts seem to have been fixed. We will continue to monitor the situation.

The issue seems to be incredibly high timeouts on Hetzner volumes, causing components with high-throughput volumes like Elasticsearch to degrade and fail. Search has temporarily been disabled while we investigate this issue and attempt to work around it.
