Lag when dropping in space?

Jan 03, 2017 Death Fluffy link
Since I've been back, I've experienced a delay when I try to drop cargo in space. At first I thought it might be a caps issue, but it seems I have to hold the 'a' button for a full second or more before the drop takes place. It used to be instantaneous for me.

Are there any other objects around you when you drop the cargo? Does it happen with all types of ships?

Wonder if its related to the autojett bug/issue?

There were other players in the sector today when I experienced the problem when dropping from an XC. Particularly at Pelatus C12. I did not have any issue afterwards when dropping from my trident. I don't think I had the issue dropping ss from my XC after that in Nyrius.

Today was really the first time I've done the drop and pickup cargo transfer in any substantial way since I've been back. Perhaps it was a combination of the fog and nearby players at the time. There were probably 2-3 players in C12 with me with 2 Goliaths. As to my previous experiences, I don't recall the details, and I ended up selecting the jettison button with my mouse to complete the drop on most of those few instances.
