          @ceruleanspark According to @mrdragon, it managed to turn itself into a forkbomb.

              @ceruleanspark He just said the process replicated itself wildly and choked the server.

                    @imhenrytheiixiam Man, I wonder why it did that. Everything was perfectly fine before, even under load.

                      @ceruleanspark No clue. I was lurking and overheard it. I *think* Senor Dragon didn't know, either, but I didn't get into the discussion.

                        @imhenrytheiixiam Or would that be "over-read" it?

                        @imhenrytheiixiam I'm just looking at the cloudflare from before dole got cherriesed up, and there's no spike in registrations or anything that would send mysql off on a crazy server destroying bender. I was asleep, so I'm innocent!

                          @ceruleanspark Can you get in via your whatever-Dragon-had-set-up-for-you? He'd mentioned not being able to do much without you, I think...

                            @imhenrytheiixiam He needs to call support and have them unplug it then thrash it with a broom handle to cure it of its upstart ideas

            @toksyuryel What in the hay is a forkbomb?

              @chiefanchor It's a process that replicates itself endlessly.

                @toksyuryel Self-calling endless loop?

                  @chiefanchor That'd be the most basic one you can make, yeah. The name comes from the system call fork() which creates a copy of the calling process.
