I just got this. I'll put the 1.43 documentation up somewhere until we've sorted out something better.

(fwd) To: Jeremiah Willcock <jewillco@osl.iu.edu>, Daniel James <dnljms@gmail.com>, David Abrahams <dave@boostpro.com> Hi Daniel, My name is DongInn Kim, systems administrator in the OSL. I have been looking on the web server for a couple of days on wowbagger because of the very high loadaverage on it. The high loadaverage seems to be from most pages related to the zip files under http://www.boost.org/doc/ because whenever the page is accessed, the zip file(s) are decompressed and compressed back and then the page can show their contents. These compression and decompression processes have used a lot of resources on wowbagger and they made the server machine almost not usable. I first blocked the crawlers' access and watched any big changes on the loadaverage. At the beginning, it seems to be fine but eventually the loadaverage went back to high. It seems that many people need to access the pages. So, I had to block the doc/ path for a while to see if Rene or any boost guys who are working on the doc page could help out this issue. Without blocking the pages, I can not really manage all the other services on wowbagger any more. I am really sorry for the late response but I expected that someone who I talked early about this issue could transfer my words to the list. Would it be OK if I talk to David Abrahams or anyone else expecting him to transfer my words for the future issues? Regards, -ps- Can you please forward this email to the boost list?
