I see the number of transaction in the mempool is increasing. It may require increasing the fees on your transactions to get them processed. It can also mean processing times become a bit longer. Note that normal processing times vary between 2 and 60 minutes and average about 10 minutes. 

BNS transactions (domains pre-orders and registrations) are relatively cheap as well as STX transfers, it is easy for miners to fit many in a block. 
However when there are a lot of transactions in the mempool it is possible not all miners have a full view or are unable to process all of them all the time. There have been improvements to the network since the last congestion so it will be good to see how the network fares.

Keep an eye on important stats in times of increased network activity or congestion using these:
