Thanks for all the fish.

I really wish we'd done one thing at a time, so we could see what affected what.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

...and thus Victor was revealed to be Captain of the Skipping and Skimming Team.

Captain AND gold medalist, thank you very much.

Nobody

Did the board just go away for everyone else?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

It did for me.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yeah, for just a minute.

So...what really affected our positive change?

I figured out why ita's explicit closes were needed, even though the PHP manual says they aren't, and why they weren't working. It's nice that both PHP and Apache are open source so one can dig around in the source code and figure out how they really work.

That said, I don't know that there really has been a positive change. Turning off the quotes can't have helped much. I do think our hosts changed their configuration in a way that made the leaking connections much less lethal to the server.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And why is that?

My theory is here: Rob "Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer" Aug 29, 2003 3:01:33 pm PDT

Sorry -- I didn't know you'd verified the theory. Have you submitted it to the developers?

Cereal confusion:

But didn't that bug of mine you pointed out, which wasn't fixed until after our connection usage dropped mean that the explicit closes weren't responsible?
