 That will use up one of your concurrent request slots.

 They can open more tcp connections than you have request slots. You're
 only DOSing yourself... :-(

all, i can let you know that Google does recognize this as an
important problem, and that the engineering team is working on it.

however, to make for a stronger case, can you all star the current
issue that documents this problem? also add your own story or use case
in the comments section as appropriate:

thanks!

yeah i am forcing them to get a 404 error, it is just really annoying
and using quota.

 greetings! unfortunately at this time, we don't have a DoS API.
 however, what you could do as a workaround is to write a filter at the
 top-level controller level, and don't let that request get lower into
 your core functionality.

 hope this helps!
