The first tests got webhook event created after few mins. Since last week they got huge delay, even 12+ hours.
Hard to test a listener.
What is the reason?

We're having the same issue here. Config is the same, but starting from June, it takes days to receive webhooks. Is PayPal going to solve this problem? Or is there anything we can in our end?

I ran into the same issue, that the webhook notifications in the sandbox get fired with a considerable delay, i.e. hours after the event has gone through. I have only tried using the webhooks in the sandbox so far, but is this something that also happens in the live environment?
