I found that this morning - is it me or are a lot of the links
broken? Either 500s or the 'running on rails' _doc/index.html thing...

(though I was going to clone del.icio.us using Rails to get up
to speed, and 'yerlinks' seems to be halfway there, so mustn't 
grumble...)

Speaking of speed, does anyone have a benchmark tool they use
to measure performance? I normally use 'ab' but it doesn't support
SSL, and siege doesn't do basic auth. I'm resorting to 'that *feels*
about 5 times faster', which isn't ideal.....
