"Build" action of any skill in developer console takes a very very long time (more than 15 mins) and eventually fails


The "Build" action of any skill in developer console under my account takes a very very long time (more than 15 mins) and eventually fails with no detailed error message. Only says ""Build failed for skill " with red text in the popup box lower right. Even right after I created a new skill, the same above Build problem occurs. All of my skills are English (CA) as primary locale. It wasn't like this several days ago. Build normally only takes 1 minute or so.

Anyone knows what's going on?

Normally Build the skill after some changes. Expecting it Builds normally as usual (fast and successful).
