A bug in our software was causing the entire company's data to show up on a single account. The first time I brought up the page it went over a gig lol.

I'm not even sure. Firefox would become unstable and crash before it could even finish loading. It was raping the IIS worker processes on the web server just generating all the HTML too. I think we had one process at 1gb when we discovered the problem.
Imagine a few million copies of this block of code and you get the idea:
Code: Select all
<tr><td style="border: 4px solid White;" colspan="1" class="normal8"><a href="../account/workorderdetailedit.aspx?woid=3457">Details</a></td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" colspan="1" class="normal8"><a href="../office/wocompleted.aspx?accid=21&woid=3457">Complete</a></td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">12/21/2009</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8"/><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8"/><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">3457</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8"/><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">Pest Control Service</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">$100.00</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">$100.00</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">$0.00</td><td style="border: 4px solid White;" class="normal8">$6.00</td></tr>
(Yes, I know its not pretty)

Yea...lots of ancient code, rushed code, and just plain bad code. But its made it easy for me to go from new guy to senior "making architect decisions" guy so its all good.
