I'm not having as many problems with this issue as tozor, but I have seen reports sporadically taking abnormally long to complete recently. I run a set of reports every morning to get updated performance data, and usually they complete within a couple minutes. Yesterday I had a report that took over 2 hours, and this morning it took about 30 minutes. Just wanted to throw that out there so others know that it is not necessarily an isolated issue.
