We're seeing a ton of requests that look like this from varied IPs.
x.x.x.x - - [27/Sep/2009:18:36:04 -0400] "GET /manual-lookup.php?pattern=test HTTP/1.1" 200 - "http://php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=test" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)"
Lots of "pattern=test" lookups - enough to tax the server pretty severely. Not sure if anyone else is seeing this but I edited the 'manual-lookup.php' to filter out these requests for now and things calmed down immediately.
Not sure if any other mirrors are seeing this but just wanted to make a mention.
Chris
