The blob reconstruction endpoints (aka the WWW version of `lei blob') have been hammered by bots while I'm gathering data to reproduce (and hopefully fix) fragmentation problems in dlmalloc-based allocators. The data gathering is silly expensive all around and I'm on old and slow hardware and intentionally ramped up bot traffic to gather more data. I've tweaked robots.txt for now, but it will take some time to take effect and I'm also distracted with offline crap.

AFAIK, nobody else is running instances with blob reconstruction enabled, yet (the feature has existed since 2019). It's a PITA to configure but I've been doing extensive work to make it easier to configure and use.
