I made two outgoing transactions some two hours ago, and not a single confirmation. Here's one of them https://blockchain.info/tx/a7605fd21983365f62eee7bc547f4d25c4dfdb7e172866d639665a883439a587
As you can see from Blockchain.info - their is a stress test going on - most blocks are close to 1MB in size. You put only 0.0001 BTC as fees - so just wait until your cheap transaction gets selected by the miners...
These stress tests are annoying. They will proceed until they showed what they wanted to show it seems.

Yes, but as mentioned before they are useful as to know how much the network can handle.
Obviously it needs more stressing than that

But it's good to know the "limits".
Don't you think?
On another note, I think the "fork of July" was more stressing than the stress test.
