Me too, fwiw... went on intermittently for about an hour (or two).

Just happened again, from 4:49 - 4:55 ... and I think I may have found a cause.
Going to try something ...

What Dryden found has been removed as an available function. Everyone should shoot him some greenies for nailing that down as an issue. Since it's something that can be abused on a lot of other forums (it's a legitimate and properly working tool, but just has far too great an impact on sites with large databases) I won't detail it out here in the open.
I'm still very interested in hearing about any similar pockets of non-responsiveness. While I believe this may have been one of the bigger issues, it's clear there's another one, and I want to try to narrow down what it might be.
So call out when and if the site goes non-responsive for a few minutes at a time.

Uh ... no.
While Clarity has removed the offending code, the exploit/bug is still there in the backend, so I'm keeping it under my hat for now.
