Not sure. ;)

I don't think it was you. (Or any specific ip). :) 

The problem was mainly that there were a bunch of stuck git processes,
that seemed to be counted against the limits in xinetd. It has a '50
connections per second and if you hit that, disable for 10 seconds'
setting. I think all the stale connections were counting against the 50
connection limit and making it hit it all the time...

No, there's not... but I don't think your script caused this. ;)

git upload-pack is the anon ones via xinetd. Thats it sending data out
to the connection.

I think it's fine to resume... and we can ping you if we see problems
with it.
