Looks like this is caused by a huge notification queue. Anderson is investigating the perf tuning for the mysql db (which is in stock state which is not up to running the community) and I am investigating turning of immediate sending (which should speed it back up again).
This will be fixed via configuration on drupal instances in stage and production.
Anderson is pushing config to production. I'm testing staged email notifications, but we won't attempt to shift to it until monday.
We've fixed the performance DB issue that was causing timeouts.
Verify this bug on stage, the time out problem has been fixed now.
