Here's the question, gnome's bugzilla has over twice as many bugs as
we have, is quite speedy and doesn't seem to suffer from the OOM
killers that our bugzilla has. So what's the difference? Did gnome
just toss hardware at the problem to make it go away or have they done
something to make bugzilla work for them?

I think throwing hardware at the problem is the wrong approach in this
case, as its just delaying the problem that has made the new hardware
seem like the solution...which will no doubt creep up again.

Don't get me wrong, the donation of hardware from gni is greatly
appreciated. I'd just to see that we try and see why we have the
problem in the first place as well. As I'm sure that this problem will
creep up again
