It's been an eventful day. On a typical day, the site would have about 50,000 hits. By lunchtime today, we had 1.6 million - due to a very large amount of malicious traffic. This in turn caused database corruptions and brief outages :(

From analysing the activity, I've done several things which should help to limit the impact if this happens again. Fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow!
Are we all sure this wasn't 1.6 million member visits...!?! ;)
