My Shakespeare Programming Language web page (built using PhpWiki) did
just get slashdotted. The web server died hard, very quickly. :)

how exactly? any noises and symptoms? what hardware?
I would temp. block with ipchains, as I did last month with code red.

I really have to write the dynamic robot blocking code now...
Every user has to be counted, php4 sessions would be the best.=20
for my php4 e-commerce project it works fine. (file sessions and mysql
sessions)
What do you think? optional or with php3 workarounds? (phplib)
How is ward doing this? logfile analysis or sessions?

yes, Wikis do not scale :-)
The only viable solution I see is to generate the Wiki as flat files
(HTML) for browsing. (Even being slashdotted will kill a flat file server
though). PhpWiki+MySQL being slashdotted? fuhgettaboutit!
