I think we do have a little inflation because the set is big enough to
not casually tell if something is in front or not; I'll do another
retriage of criticals only this week.

Tom Haddon tells me we are now live with no 4-threaded lpnet
appservers; we still have edge to deal with (and for that we're going
to move traffic off of it). I think we can close timeouts that are
only showing up on edge from here on in.

We can't start doing that for another 28 hours though - we need a
clean oops reporting period.
