yep... From Jeremy:
-----------------------------------------
We're still investigating the current rash of "Server Too Busy" Errors, but
our initial discoveries are as follows:
- We're having the most simultaneous traffic we've ever experienced on the
site.
- There are so many requests getting in line, that the server is throwing
out the last requests until the server can process the ones it has. That is
the main reason why you will get a "server too busy" error.
- There are settings which can increase the queue so more folks can get in
line.
The server, during these "Server Too Busy" times, is artificially rejecting
items that it could actually process in the line because of the default
settings are keeping the threshold low. We have doubled this setting so we
should be able to queue more requests and reduce the number of errors.
This is a unique process of tweaking the site so it runs smoothly and keeps
you from getting frustrated with slow site responses.
