 as mentioned in #29336, gitweb often falls over and dies because it runs
 out of memory under the load of cgit.cgi processes. it easily goes through
 its 8GB of memory and explodes.

 i first addressed this problem in early march by enabling the cgit cache,
 but the problem still occurs when a crawler (or attacker?) trashes through
 he cache.
