It actually didn't increase much at all.   I think there was very little
traffic directly from people clicking on a sage link from that slashdot
page:

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/apache2# grep slashdot access.log|wc -l
  12

There were only 8 downloads of Sage from sagemath.org so far today.
Surprisingly, that slashdot article seems to have barely drove traffic at
all to sagemath.org.  It would perhaps have been different had there
been a link to sagemath.org from the main story page.
