Not quite death, but it's pretty tough sailing right now.

I think we could have handled one or the other, but both
together are apparently more than our current systems can handle.

We've stopped mysqld for the moment to try to ride through this;
still trying to figure out if there is a simple way to get it through
this hump.  (Both Digg and /. have really short curves; the demand will
be down within hours, and we can go back to business as usual).

Cheers,

Jeremy

Yep, front page of Digg can be a website killer. We seem to be coming 
out of it now.

At least the server didn't completely melt. *knock on wood*

Just for "geek value", is it possible to have a graph of how the slashdot effect look like? I mean a graph of the hourly web hit statistics or something.

Be very glad that a lot of people are finding wine interesting...

Sure, we keep a webalizer graph for such a thing.

You can see the hit stats here, and it is an amazing jump in traffic. 
WineHQ was already a busy site to begin with.

The webalizer stats mention "winehq.com". Please change this to
"winehq.org"
Thanks
