[squid-users] Slow down connexion for IP making a lot of hits

2013-05-15 Thread C. Pelissier
Hi, How can squid slow down clients (Browsers) making a lot of hits (over 100 000 hits per day) by staying connected all day and night to web sites doing page refresh up to 30 per minute (increasing also the size of access_log) ? Same question if download is over 20 Gb per day. delay_pools

You might find this easier to achieve with IPtables rules than Squid: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/187 You'd want to restrict connections to your Squid port (probably 3128) to be a compromise between lots in a few seconds to allow for normal browser parallel accesses,
