Thanks for your offer of help. When additional data from clients would
help, we usually post here and appreciate whatever reports we can get.

We collect statistics throughout the system, so there is a very
complete view of what's going on. In the end, we're usually sorting
through too much information, not too little.

We were responding to this issue hours before it was user visible.
Over time the issue became worse, then became user visible, and
eventually this resulted in the blog post. We need to get better at
the status blog, but it's rare that we aren't responding to a site-
wide issue within moments.
