Filed as a bug: 22658008
It's unacceptable that suddenly all builds uploaded (above 30mb or so, but these turn into 150mb or more when bitcode is included) take several hours or days even in Processing time. They don't come out of this state and it's impossible to test apps using TestFlight anymore. We sit and wait but testers run out of patience and bugs need to be identified and squashed in a timely fashion.
success uploading binary using xcode7. Completed processing stage in 15 minutes.
Project changes needed to succeed Build Settings-> Enable Bitcode ->No and Enable On Demand Resources->No.
change build number. rebuild and submit.

No messages here except "Potential Loss of Keychain Access", which is a warning message that occurs every time the application identifier prefix changes.
Nothing in junk mail folders.
Have tried disabling bitcode.
My apps do not use App Thinning, and have not changed substantially since the last uploads.
Same behavior regardless of uploading through Xcode or the Application Loader.
Same behavior from multiple networks.
The past couple days, I have been unable to complete the upload at all. It pauses for a long time "Verifying Application Assets", then fails with the message "The session's status is FAILED and the error description is 'failed to open ssh session. (16)."
This appears to be an Apple side problem for a large number of people. I have half a dozen builds, all for the same version and build number, all displaying "Processing" now for many days. Now builds are just displaying "Created" when the SSH session fails as described above.
In the new Resource and Help section of iTunes Connect, there is this statement. I suggest every developer who is having this problem contact Apple as indicated until app submissions are back to where they were before the past couple weeks.
Why is my build Processing and how long can it take?
Before you can use a build on iTunes Connect, it must be processed. If you’ve successfully uploaded a build and it’s in the Processing state for more than 24 hours, there may be an issue with it. To resolve the issue, contact us.
Problem solved? We are experiencing the same issue.
Have any of you tried using Application Loader to submit the binary?
I had tons of issues until I started using Application Loader.
Also make sure the network you are on does not have the ports declared in the following article blocked: https://itunesconnect.apple.com/docs/UsingApplicationLoader.pdf
It's a version using Application Loader that's having the processing issue for me (26 hours and counting for 55MB app).
Same issue. stuck on processing for over 48 hours.I uploaded 2 apps and both stuck in processing stage. So many issues with these new versions of xcode and apple 😟
I have uploaded 3 binary's from Application uploader and 1 binary from Xcode itself. But the none of the binary's are getting displayed under Build section in iTunes. Have waited for more than 24 hours but no success.
