Taking this to potlatch-dev I'm really, really hoping that this has fixed everything. However, I still have a lingering suspicion that there's a client-side issue where the URL is never actually requested. I've seen this happen with the linux debug player against a local rails install using wireshark, and I suspect it happens on the release flash plugin too against the main server, but I haven't captured with wireshark conclusively. And so I can't pin it down and it takes friggin ages to try and trigger it. I've found it happening when panning around lots, and I wonder if there's a max-concurrent-requests issue somewhere between flash and the browser. I've seen enough reports about this, and experienced it often enough myself, to believe that it's not actually the site that's returning that many errors. Maybe we'll need to trap map call errors in potlatch and ping a logging url to let us reconcile times-potlatch-thinks-it-got-an-error with times-the-rails-serves-logged-sending-an-error and see how they correlate!
