Hi,
I'm using CalendarScript 3.2.1 on my server. Today that server began to respond very slowly. A quick look at it via ssh showed that about 10 calendar.pl processes were running, using up most of the cpu time. The apache logs were full with accesses to calendar.pl, mostly coming from the google crawler. They indicated that it was looking at entries both very old and a couple of years in the future (e.g. in 1977 and 2040).
Any idea what it might have triggered that crashed those calendar.pl threads (they seemed deadlocked... I watched a single process number over a period of a couple of minutes)?
For now I excluded any webcrawlers from accessing the calendar via a robots.txt entry, but still... something like that just shouldn't happen.
Thanks,
Sebastian
