That's not exactly a solution, that means the devs are profiling their website to determine the specific error, but what exactly the problem is has not been determined. I think the problem here is the they're using 2 sql servers and some DDOS prevention middleware and expecting that to handle the massive traffic due to the pizzagate controversy on reddit. They need to seriously consider scaling their infrastructure, better sharding of databases, better caching schemes, etc.
This really needs to be discussed somewhere, because right now, I can't find any fleshed out discussion on their infrastructure, and I'm willing to bet there are some community members who have a ton more experience with this sort of problem that would help, but they have to create a sustained discussion...

Thing is the site performance was just as bad before pizza got flung over here. I don't see it being any worse now than it was before
