A few things to consider here:

  * It's getting hammered.  I didn't expect it to be this bad.
  * If it can't process things fast enough packets might be dropped.  So the TCP/IP error rates are probably pretty high right now.
  * It's logging all of this crap too ...
Normally it can do the handshake in tens of milliseconds. Right now the load on it is basically "crush." But it's queuing and answering as best as it can.
