The cache <https://www.dnsdist.org/guides/cache.html> is not full:

> getPool(""):getCache():printStats()
Entries: 121594/1000000
Hits: 50055
Misses: 224003
Deferred inserts: 64
Deferred lookups: 13
Lookup Collisions: 11
Insert Collisions: 6
TTL Too Shorts: 0
Cleanup Count: 60

topClients() show many requests from a given subnetwork. Adding
<https://www.dnsdist.org/reference/config.html#addDynamicBlock>:

addDynamicBlock('[CENSORED]:2500::','Too many requests', DNSAction.Refused, 
86400, 40)

limits the used bandwidth (as shown by topBandwidth()) but not the CPU
use (almost 100 % most of the time).
