Most of the hits we get are either the gitweb front page or the gitweb rss feeds, and it's eating I/O bandwidth like crazy. This has become particularly painful during the current one-server outage. Kay, gitweb really needs to be able to do caching, or be run behind a caching proxy. Otherwise I will have to turn it off until we can come up with a dedicated piece of server hardware for it. -hpa
