ASP.NET WCF REST help page ‘Memory gates checking’ error at AppHarbor

Here is an weird one....

Just did an TeamMentor auto-deploy (via a GitHub push that triggered AppHarbor via a webhook) and the published site is running OK (on the deployed AppHarbor server) ....

.... but the 'REST help page' (on the same server) throws this error:

Interestingly, the actual REST calls seem to be OK (meaning that at least, the error doesn't disable the REST service):

I wonder when this happens, and if this situation (which is a kind of mild DoS) could be triggered on a 'normally working server' via remote (to the server) requests.

Meanwhile, all looks good with the same code based deployed to Azure:
