I've seen this some before, but it's happening every 3rd link I click now... and it can take up to 3 reloads (and getting worse) to get the actual page I want...
Is this just another George sighting or something more significant?
Just FYI. I suppose I can live with it...

Yes. It's happening at random now as well.

Same here now, fairly persistent. System load is below 1.0, so can't be that (in theory).

Yeah, that may be it - 724 right now. Apparently the load is low given that not all of those requests actually make it...

Likely, it seems we are getting hammered by something. The lowest I have seen it today 370 "Guests" and it has gone as high as 1000.

I probably can't investigate further, but you guys as Mods can click "WHO IS ONLINE" to view where these guests are and what they're doing... and if kerz has allowed you, you also see the IP and user-agent (if not, he can)...

Who is online only lists members (and searchbots), not guests.

kerz could probably tell from the access logs, or just log into the VM and monitor network connections.

Apparently, found the "Display Guests" function and it gave me something like 3 pages only with IP ranges and UA strings all over the place. Thus, nothing suspicious (at the moment, that is).
