While trying to log in here I got:

"General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Too many connections [1040]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists."

Never saw this before

Yesterday I had trouble getting to the DBB. The page just wouldn't load at all.

perhaps it has to do with Google's new rules being turned on? We do have a googlebot running here.

Believe me I'm getting about ready to send a stinging email to my host about it.

Would that have anything to do with the "Too many connections" part of the message?

well, they've opened up their data gathering. So anything you search, anything that goes through your Gmail account is fair game for advertisers. If they had set something wrong or perhaps it if a round up of all of us that use a gmail account that's used to register here or something along those lines, it basically DOS'd the DBB.

Just thinking out loud with limited knowledge.
