We are running b15.

Our most common problem is aborted connections of duration under one minute
(aborted at user request per the log); typically 8 or 10 customer attempts
to get a connection to run as long as they wish; Karl Denninger of mcs.net
may have more meaningful info as he has a much larger site.
