Yeah, there have been some problems over the last couple of weeks.  You
might review this list for the DNS thread.  Seems that SpamHaus and
Cyberbunker got into a pissing contest with some of the Cyberbunker

open DNS resolvers around the net to the tune of upwards of 300Gbps
against Spamhaus.

Might check out the Internet Health Report here:

Pretty much everything looks reasonable.  Nothing red.  No major
congestion, ATM.
