I improved sagenb.org so it could be used by more people effectively. Now there are 25,000 accounts. It's getting hammered pretty hard, especially during day hours. E.g., I just looked at the log of people doing stuff a few seconds ago (everything below is during 1 *second*): 2010-02-12 08:37:03-0800 [HTTPChannel,88390,127.0.0.1] User 'codyrude' logged in.

I will have to do further work and profiling to scale the notebook to work robustly for even more users. Note that the bottleneck at this point has nothing to do with the hardware or network -- it's entirely a software/programming problem. I'll work on this during the spring quarter (paid for by Univ of Washington).
