The bsdstats.org has been discussed on the freebsd-questions
list recently, they've probably fixed the erroneous data by
now ( or soon ). As far as it hanging the system, it slows down
the boot on one machine, not on another (the latter already
had the network up.) I am used to it.
I see it as a work-in-progress, for a while its "ports" tab
(top of the page) was a good resource to see what
ports other people were using (reporting as being used).
That tab was probably freebsd-only, in retrospect.
