The PG site is just too popular. The database cannot serve more than ~30 
requests at one time.

Try accessing the site in the "off" hours. Rush hours are 9 AM - 18 PM EST.
    

Marcello, can you tell me what it would take to grow our capacity to
handle hits?  I know you're also looking at Web site mirrors (I can
supply some sites for this, BTW).  But if you could come up with some
recommendations for what it would take for iBiblio to dramatically grow
our capacity, I can try to put something together for them.

30 simultaneous requests to PostgreSQL does not seem like a whole lot,
so I'm assuming that contention for resources with other hosted sites is
the main problem.  It would be nice to do better.

I know that iBiblio claims network bandwidth is not an issue, but
possibly we need to look at the whole system. 

Thanks for any ideas you (or others) can provide.
