Hi everyone!
It looks like Axel has fixed Trac's speed issues. The site is fast and
responsive, again.

As it turns out, search engines caused all the traffic because they
tried to index all commits and diffs between all revisions. As you can
imagine, the number of combinations quickly sums up to many hundreds
of millions of pages to index. So, the solution was to add a simple
robots.txt file to prevent search engines from indexing the _whole_
Trac site.

Jorge, are you satisfied, now? :P

Bye,
Waldemar Kornewald
