each tag page links to every other tag in a "narrowing down" way, so following all links would indeed hit all combinations.

very likely just a naively coded spider. i would put up a robots.txt excluding /demovibes/tags/ and /search/

the crawler attack was hitting every combination of tags in the tag cloud

DB load, not HTTP server load, seemed to be the problem

queue page is probably slow, too, but I guess better odds of hitting cache

like new uploads, user favourites, songs by cyborg jeff or SIDs.

zoi (21:50:07)
seems those slow pages that list songs like to tie up the limited number of processes on the webserver

mirrorbird (21:48:39)
less efficient tho, they have to pull the pages to see it

(ah just noticed a 'meta noindex' tag so maybe it's being done that way per page)
