It happens that 9 AM Brussels time is midnight pacific time. I'm sure Google is running some maintentance cron at midnight thinking "This is a low demand time," and it is, across the US, but not in Brussels. These are old instances, and Google probably doesn't want to re-time or rewrite the cron job to be more efficient.

Do people go to bed that early in the US? Looked at my project's charts, the low demand time is definitely 4AM and midnight is 40% of peak.
