And bandwith > limiters are really interessting for us :) You can limit the bandwidth per virtual server, and then juggle with the bandwidth for each request. Per-process limits have beeen talked about, and distributed limits might be available when the new distributed caching system I'm working on takes off (stress put on _might_). It hasn't been tested on busy servers that I know of. Would you be willing to experiment? It could be interesting.. Be aware though that performance is going to take a hit if you're using bandwidth throttling (almost to roxen/1.2 levels) because then I/O would be done in pike (as opposed to C). Also, expect your RAM usage to increase, especially if you're serving large files (the subsystem is somewhat unoptimized, memory pressure systems have been in the talks but were never implemented). > The amount of bandwith is really hudge and is it limited by our F5 > Bigip... We are in the process to go to use Extreme Load bancer since > Bigip seems to drop packets when going about 150/170MB of bandwith :-( Interesting indeed. <grin> -- Kinkie primary e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [random fortune] QOTD: "I've got one last thing to say before I go; give me back all of my stuff."
