   Users, and I speak as one, can be trained to accept    
   appalling standards of service.  We've got an enterprise    
   reporting system that /usually/ returns an error instead    
   of a report.   
      
   I suppose the technical answer to the question is in    
   terms of the activity level on the server - where a lot    
   less than 100% still counts as under stress - or on   
   the duration between starting an operation and    
   completing it.  But what can you do ab‰ut it? I suppose   
   stop running your personal Bitcoin software on    
   the server...
