gcc.gnu.org is having load problems. It seems to be because there are
too many CVS connections--there is a limit of 10 anonymous CVS
connections, but there is no limit on SSH connections used by people
by write access. It is also conceivable that there is some disk
problem which the RAID system is compensating for at the cost of
decreased performance. Investigation is continuing.
When we are the limit of 10 anonymous CVS connections, as we've been
all day, the effect you will see is that gcc.gnu.org will accept your
TCP connection, but nothing will happen until you get in to be one of
the 10 permitted to run simultaneously.
