I run a fairly large forum, and I've been getting emails from linode That the CPU usage has been going over 90% multiple times a day, Yours have been complaining that the site has been taking up to five or six seconds to load. I checked the log, and I would keep getting hit with hundreds of connections and second from specific addresses, So I set up rate limiting with Cloudflare. I thought everything was going well after that, until suddenly it started getting even worse. I started realizing that instead of one IP hitting the site a hundred times per second, it was now hundreds of IP's hitting the site Slightly below the Throttling threshold I had set up. |
