Technorati crushes under it's own weight?

It's been several days now, I observed some serious irregularities on Technorati's behavior.

First, when scanning the site, sometimes you see your blog as updated some minutes ago, but on another page, the same blog looks as been updated days before! The tags show your last post on one page, three posts behind on some other. What is very bothering is that if you plan to use some of the Technorati's RSS feeds, say all posts tagged "moon", you don't get all latest post sent!

The most serious malfunction I found is the one that has started a few days ago. I send pings that Technorati completely ignores, some other times, it shows a blog as updated but the post won't show up in any query. And this whatever the ping method I use, be it a utility, an internet service, even Technorati's own ping trigger! That makes the RSS feed, a virtually unreliable service!

It's sure Technorati has grown up since the early days and keeps on proposing new services every day but I'm seriously wondering if the guys are planning to upgrade the machines backstage or Technorati is condemned to be crushed under it's own weight!
