the truncated HTML, and then reloaded a few seconds later, and saved that too.
Then I forgot about it for 5 days - d'oh!

I diffed the files and they are different - ie the first one isn't just a
truncated version of the second. Which suggests to me that it is your traffic
script not asking for an exclusive lock or something?
