Kevin,

Someone else has been utilizing the server a lot, and it seems to be 
overwhelming the limited memory of the micro AWS instance we were hosting it 
on. I've bumped up the machine now to a bigger one now (all of 2GB of RAM!).

Please feel free to beat on this machine so we can see if that solves the 
problem.
