What is the state of the art now in apache or modperl
related modules that will throttle based on a combination
of the following metrics:
* recent bandwidth per IP
* recent request count per IP
* max number of parallel requests per IP
I'm using a tweaked version of the Stonehenge utility
Well for the purposes of documentation, I'll follow up
to myself.
I was pointed at a netfilter module (rule) available
as a patch, called iplimit, which limits simultaneous
open tcp connections to N from either a single IP or from
a netblock.. this helps a lot..
