I am deploying pgbouncer to at least not cascade the badness to the DB sever if/when this happens again. If someone has a spare moment, I could use some eyes on the HTTP logs to try and figure out what happened specifically.

Okay, pgbouncer is deployed and I have to get food before work deploys start at 6. If anyone needs something more, call me.
