And it's covariant form:

Safari can’t open the page “http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/summary.html 
” because the server where this page is located isn’t responding.

I haven't been following the server performance discussion too much  
but could we in some fashion separate the web page server from the  
trac server?  I'm afraid that the large increase in the number of  
trunk and release testers combined with a steady increase in the  
number of Boost libraries and tests may be partly to blame.  One way  
to test this is to reduce the number of testers (and delete their  
results) and see if there's any noticeable improvement in server  
performance.  Is this worth trying?
