I setup the server to only transcribe two files at a time, so yeah someone could abuse it for sure with two big uploads and stick everyone else on the queue. But for me, even a 3 hour video translates with large model in about ~30 minutes so it wouldn't be too bad, but hopefully everyone is conscious to not do that, so far nobody has abused it which is cool.

Me again - why two at a time? In my initial testing with whisper-asr-webservice and my RTX 3090 I could pretty easily throw ~10 different files at it simultaneously as there is some natural staggering between API entry, CPU conversion/resampling/transcoding of audio, the actual audio length, network effects like upload speed, etc.

I also implemented some anti-abuse-ish features between traefik and Cloudflare that should help it stand up better in the face of bad actors abusing it.

Certainly not something to necessarily depend on but I thought I'd mention it.

> I am just paying for a somewhat expensive server and I love how it's really fast but also I have a lot of free GPU time so might as well let others use it too lol.

They are donating some spare capacity.
