I did a transfer about an hour ago and it still isn't even showing up in the blockchain. I've had transfers take hours and hours but never have had one still not show up in the blockchain after so much time.
What are some of you guys currently having to wait?

Well just an update in case anyone was curious. It took about 1 1/2 hours for the transaction to even show up in the blockchain, but once it did it received 6 confirmation in under 40 minutes. As a matter of fact i checked it and it showed nothing, then after 5 minutes i rechecked and there it was with 3 confirmations.
I have had confirmations take up to 6 hours before, but have never had the transaction not show up in the chain before for hours. It has always shown up almost instantly.

The transaction times are terrible recently.
I think it is because of twisted priorities. All the immense computing power of the network is bent towards mining coins, and not processing transactions.
