The problems Dsource is having is not really traffic related (although high
traffic don't help), it is a technical problem in Trac wherein it don't
release it's db connections the way it should. You might help resolve the
problem by finding out where in the Trac/Python code the problem is, I know
Brad would be very happy to find it.
