It's the 'kasagsagan' of the 12.12 sale when everyone's adding to cart and the website is about to crash. It's the 'kasagsagan' of summer when it's so hot you can fry an egg on the pavement. It's the primetime, the rush hour, the most intense part of anything.
From 'sagsag' (to be busy, to go on relentlessly).
Almost always used with the prefix 'ka-', forming 'kasagsagan', to mean 'the very peak/height of'.
