Love it. This reminds me somewhat of a similar issue I saw in 2012, where Cheezburger.com went down over Thanksgiving weekend because we had no deploys for more than 80 hours, and an accidental per-server cache filled up in about that much time. https://jacob.jkrall.net/turkey-day-down-time


Very good story, it's one of those edge cases that are only found when something unusual happens.
