It's a bank holiday in many parts of europe. Gonna slow things down a bit I think.
Well only really Poland, Serbia, France, Belgium cant imagine them slowing much down and as others said the US.
Most others celebrate Veterans/Armistice day on the closest Sunday possible to the 11th.
On a side note yes, Gox is lagging, that loverly ''please wait a bit...'' text appears to great customers ever so politely when you go on the site, but still able to get in.
