title: ionic2 push notification API taking a long time
body: <p>In an Ionic2 project that I am working on I have configured the Ionic Push Cloud service. When I use the ionic.io dashboard to send a push notification, the notification registers on the target device immediately. </p>
  
  <p>When I now use the ionic http push API to programmatically deploy the push notification, the push takes a few hours to register on my target device. Is this expected behavior? If not how can we reduce the push timing to have push notifications go out in an instantaneous manner (within a minute or two?).</p>
  
  <p><strong>Of note:</strong> A week or two ago I had also tested the http push API and observed instantaneous push notifications to my target device.</p>
