We got the info from them too to pull it from our tube software for the time being.

If I had to take an educated guess as a programmer, I would say it's probably the geoip lookups that are killing them. Every single request had to be sent with the user's IP address so that it wouldn't show models that had certain countries blocked, and if people were listing the cams on video pages and homepages of their tubes/etc then that was probably hundreds if not thousands of geoip lookups that had to be done per second.
