Default "Repacking"

"Repacking the server, please hold"

Someone didn't bother to get inventive with this message, I was dissapointed.

yeah, had to get 'er done in a hurry no time to write up a whimsical message

Dunno what was up, was eating lunch and my cell phone beeps out a page (I get notifications sent to my phone any time something unusual happens on the site).. "Uh oh" says I, closely followed by "check, please!" ... Then a couple minutes later the phone rings, and its PSJ ... Haul *** back to work, and find a couple tables of the database marked as borked (crashed), which one of is the post table (2.8 million rows). Incidentally, the post table is the one that takes over 30 minutes to repack
