Remember that Google uses only linux in their infrastructure and that is what caused this issue. So we can conclude that linux cannot scale well by any means and if you are thinking of implementing it in your enterprise you should plan to have global downtime while you try to get it working. I won't place the blame squarely on linux although that is where most of the blame lies, but some of the blame is on Google's employees as well. They have consistently neglected Google's services and would rather sit around playing with office toys all day rather than trying to build a stable service.
