If every supernode keeps serving whatever it can (e.g. 1000 requests per second) -- then outage problem would be resolved pretty soon.
But I guess overloaded supernode does not serve anything at all.
My guess would be that after 1000 successfully served handshakes clients send 1000 data requests, and most of these data requests are ignored, because supernode is overloaded.
End result -- almost no data is distributed.
Most likely the problem is in Skype code for supernodes (almost all Skype clients are supernodes).
I think we should expect Skype hotfix soon.
