Right now this trac server is returning 503 errors half the time for me.

You can also check this by running this a few times:
`curl -o /dev/null -s -w "%{http_code}\n" https://trac.ffmpeg.org/`
Seems like the server needs a capacity upgrade? Or database rebuild?
Alternatively, I imagine the majority of traffic is to the ffmpeg wiki
documentation pages from logged out users, meaning they're just accessing
static content that's identical between viewers. Some more aggressive
caching might relieve the load from these views. It would require setting
the right caching headers, but something like Cloudflare could even be
used to cache that static content for logged out user and relieve the load
from the trac server. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
