I have seen Ask out crawling hard over the last 4 days. Hit 6 different sites that I have access to raw log files, took every page across all sites, different topics on each site.

I haven't seen it crawl my latest site yet. However, I have seen that people have installed the AskBar.

One of my sites that is only a week old is being crawled very deep for two days. Very cool.
FYI - I did link to the site from 3 other sites of mine...
