It seems that gitweb throws an error every time. This means that nothing gets cached, and therefore the load on the kernel.org machines is driven into the high double digits:

[Mon Jan 16 10:42:01 2006] [error] [client 82.181.110.11] [Mon Jan 16 10:42:01 2006] index.cgi: Use of uninitialized value in scalar assignment at /home/httpd/html/git/index.cgi line 411. [Mon Jan 16 10:42:03 2006] [error] [client 82.181.110.11] fatal: Not a git repository: '/pub/scm/linux/hotplug/hotplug-ng.git' [Mon Jan 16 10:42:03 2006] [error] [client 82.181.110.11] [Mon Jan 16 10:42:03 2006] index.cgi: Use of uninitialized value in scalar chomp at /home/httpd/html/git/index.cgi line 406. [Mon Jan 16 10:42:03 2006] [error] [client 82.181.110.11] [Mon Jan 16 10:42:03 2006] index.cgi: Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /home/httpd/html/git/index.cgi line 407.

This is all very bad...
