A new spider racing record

 kw: blogs, blogging, spider scanning

I finished the prior post and looked at the stats. Today and yesterday, the number of views exceeds 33,000 per day. That means my entire blog was downloaded about twelve times each day! The spiders are racing through the blogosphere.

Gemini produced this image using Nano Banana 2. It also provided cute commentary on the details, such as the expressions, the spiders in the grandstand, etc. Seems rather proud of itself.

This is the hour-by-hour trace for the past 24h:

At the peak, the rate is nearly 2 hits per second, for an entire hour. 35,200 in 12 hours...with a good, long run, about six hours, exceeding one hit per second.

I hope someone is getting something useful from this!
