always "The server is too busy at the moment." - why?

... we could not find a time when the server was not busy. I re-tried (small, not densely-mapped areas to PDF or JPG) last night after 0 UTC which was a very quiet period on http://munin.openstreetmap.org/openstreetmap/yevaud.openstreetmap/load.html

Questions:

1. Is yevaud still the server which does the exports? If not, which server? Munin link?
2. Is 25 still the correct load limit for export availability?

I think it would be okay to say that we just do not have the capacity to do export, but always (if it never works) saying "wait a few minutes" is not really helpful.

Thank you!

Is this really still an issue? We replaced the load limit by a CPU idle time limit last week and as far as I know it should be fine now other than in the very busiest periods.

BTW as far I as I know the load limit was never 25.

Looks like there was an error in the new text - fixed in [changeset:372c2f7/chef].

Nice, thank you very much, Tom! Seems to work even during "busy" daytimes (tried twice with one hour in-between).
