Unclear.  When your catalog-sig e-mail first arrived yesterday, I
logged in to ximinez to see if the system was overloaded, and uptime
reported load averages something like 0.2, 0.5, 0.7, which made it
look like the system wasn't very loaded, but was coming down from a
greater load.  (A rude crawler, maybe?)  I didn't investigate further,
because it didn't look like there was any problem at the time that
needed fixing.
