It would seem that del.icio.us has joined Technorati, Feedster, BlogPulse, etc. in the Web 2.0 applications that don't scale very well. Posting new links to del.icio.us seems to fail for me more times than it succeeds.
Not surprising, I guess. Anything with a central server is gonna hit scaling problems if it gets popular. Time to dust off all those old P2P treatises from 2001. :-)

I doubt P2P is the answer, which has it's own problems (damn firewalls).
takes out some of the possible bottlenecks though?
and introduces new ones?
Hmmm. What sort of new bottlenecks would you say are created by going more P2P?
