Frontiers of web design.
If you're interested in the results of the Lieberman vs. Lamont race, well, you're not the only one. And it turns out that the State of Connecticut doesn't bother to cache their election results page, but just does a database query every time someone hits that web page.

Should I start screaming about denial of service attacks, or just point and laugh? (And, regarding "The system administrators have been notified.", do you think that this Crystal Reports program is sending a notification every time the page fails to load?)

Point and laugh loudly. This error indicates that the Crystal 11 OEM version has been set-up incorrectly. And yes Crystal Enterprise can email errors.
