There seems to be some attempts to avoid DOS attacks by eliminating
excessive resource usage. Might I point out that the first script I
tried out

m=range(99)
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
m=[m,m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:],m[:]]
return m

seems to be taking an awful lot of my machine's resources
