[vox-tech] mod_throttle

2003-02-06 Thread Bill Kendrick

Has anyone here ever used the Apache module mod_throttle?
I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to shape my outgoing traffic
while not being unreasonable about providing access to my site.

(e.g., I'm fine with the site being a bit slower, but not with it jumping
out at you with Request Denied! errors :^) )

I mentioned this to you earlier, but, for everybody else...

Also look into mod_gzip. It's supported by almost all modern browsers.

mod_gzip's current homepage is http://www.schroepl.net/projekte/mod_gzip/

see http://www.schroepl.net/projekte/mod_gzip/browser.htm for browser 
compatibility.

mod_bandwidth also looks interesting.

I've asked about it for my other website (which is not on a colo'd box,
so my ISP would need to install it globally for me :^) )

The problem with mod_gzip is that the server I'm dealing with right now
(putting mod_throttle on) has an average load average of 10 or so. :^)

Also, the bulk of the visitors are WebTV users, and, although I haven't
looked into it to be sure, I seriously doubt they support gzipped content.
(Besides, their boxes are quite slow, as well)

Thanks, I'll take a look!
