Has anyone actually looked at what those 27M PostgreSQL hits are? I'm
betting that 90% of them are duplicate copies of mailing list traffic.
If you exclude content generated by us (which doesn't count because we
can change the name via sed), I'm betting there's just barely 5M web
pages about us (which would account for all the Postgres hits).
