How is 40000 records out of almost 100000 a good result? Especially when 
obtaining large result sets was no problem two weeks ago?

Is that not a valid use case? Queries similar to "Give me all actors" 
are even mentioned on dbpedia.org [0]. In any case, extracting data for 
(computational) linguistic purposes sounds like a good use case for an 
ontology built from Wikipedia.

Also, accusing me of "crawling" this data is a bit ironic considering 
how future DBpedia versions will be built.
