Hi, if anybody is interested in trying them out, I've applied the above two patches on both branches. If you want to test them in 1.7.x have a look at these jira for details on how to enable them, if you're playing on trunk just go to the WMS configuration and use the UI. http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3085 http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3086
The limits have been applied on raster output only, since they are the ones where the two are the most important and easier to control, too. There are other WMS outputs: KML, PDF, SVG, Atom, RSS. KML, SVG, RSS are streaming, so memory control does not seem to make much sense. I'm dubious as timeout is concerned as well, since in these formats the time it takes to execute the command includes streaming out the result, which is dependent on the client download speed. I would say, let's not apply any limit on those. PDF and SVG are harder to deal with. They both build the response in memory before sending it, but it's not possible to estimate how big it will be. Time wise, it's possible to determine a rendering time for both, and it's typically a long longer than raster rendering. Not sure if we want to limit it? Gabriel suggested that for these formats we could introduce a max number of features rendered. I could go for that, but wouldn't the limit have to be global (that is, include raster rendering as well?). And how would a client know that the limit is surpassed? Opinions?
