I’m the author of the other post, I believe mine has been wrongly closed: [UEFN Launch Session takes incredibly long all of a sudden - #5 by Bug-Reporter](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/uefn-launch-session-takes-incredibly-long-all-of-a-sudden/2702005/5)

This is clearly a server side issue of UEFN servers in at least Middle East.  
Can someone check this from the epic team? Feel free to reach out to me if you need help replicating.
