Various other
attacts. I know compiling a new kernel and having to restart a server is a huge
inconvence for

Again it's not necessarily a matter that simple. The pipe gets filled, rate
limitting takes affect and things seem to slow down. Some of it is also acting
as legitimate traffic and that causes some of the development things to spazz.
