OctoDev Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Its configured But the F5 is so fast, that it does not triger it. I actually can rate limit http requests using Nginx instead. But a single page can make many requests, and in the end, the page gets slower. I rate limited to 4 r/s for PHP, i would love to have 2, but under 4 will be blocked (when using ajax search, it sends bunch of requests like a ddos in ACP) Also got 6 cores * 3.7 GHz, goes down if its fairly large but not one person lol oh and upgraded to 2gb ram but still half isnt used lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevengeFNF Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Also, with IPS4 you can enabled the Page Cache for Guests. That will work for any guest or bot that hammer you with http requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevengeFNF Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 To the ones that are having this problem and using apache, the module mod_limitipconn limits the connections per IP and pressing F5 for some seconds will result in a 503 error page. This is one possible solution and a very good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Websec GmbH Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I am sorry, but that´s just due to poor setup of your MySQL/Whatever SQL Server you use and due to bad nginx/apache configs. It is a shame how many people use the standard configs. IPB is and will always be ressourcehungry, due to the fact that most stuff needs to be fetched from the db. You may need to consider setting up your server good enough to make sure that you save some of those ressources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASTRAPI Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 You should limit both connections and requests on Nginx for better results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
