Agreed. I am happy with Heroku so far (I am pre-launch so the effect hasn't been great), and intend to stick with them for at least a while (I might have most of two decades as a dev in this business, but zero of those are as a sysadmin), but 45 minutes is low:

I may be showing 48^ errors in my per-minute checks but those errors occurred in at least^ nine separate blocks across an eleven hour window.

In other words, we are probably looking at around ten hours of issues, even if not outright outage.

^ I disabled the checks at times because it was just a waste, so the true stats are likely worse.
