 Does anyone else see the same symptoms?  This is on an Iyonix, RO
 5.22, 512 MiB RAM, and with various recent CI versions (I check for
 a new CI version daily) over at least 2 weeks.

 I am aware that Slashdot has had some problems recently (hardware
 failure), though I'd have thought they would be over by now.

 I haven't noticed any other site show these symptoms.  It doesn't
 happen every time.
