Oh believe me, the forum and database software can handle far greater. But I suspect the database server was probably not sized for that kind of load. Plus, the number on-line is the number of registered users. How many curiosity seekers followed the link in AutoblogGreen just to browse? And if the forum and database are running on the same server, that could cause real performance issues.
Most registered users was today? That seems to support the theory that load crashed the site. Martin should be flattered.
