i fail to see anything about bringing the server "to its knees" perhaps my old eyes decieve me
invisible ink ?
severe performance issues does NOT equal bringing a server to its knees. if a site is up and able to be knocked off that would lead me to believe it certainly wasn't "on its knees"
and like i said regardless it is certainly possible for one ip to cause "severe performance issues" so the point is kinda moot right ?
