First let me note that such crash we had very rarely, once or twice in
few years since this image runs. So, if this wont repeat much, I simply
wouldn't spend much time on it. If it starts to repeat, then of course
we need to react.

Am I conflating two different issues that we've seen with the site? For some reason I thought this happened more often than that.

But if the client (like wget command) sends requests repeately without
the cookie, a session is created for every request and this can grow up
memory fast.

Ah, now I see why you're thinking DOS. How long does an orphaned session live?

If we got hit really hard by a lot of requests all at once, would we be able to tell by examining the Apache logs?

What evidence might Aida leave in the image, if any?
