Fork Bombs are easier to pull off from the command line. Not so much with DOS. I would say that loading a large webserver for each request would use up more resources than a tiny C program. Thats the whole point of the post.
- konad 16y agoYou're right about the webserver being overload. Threads would be less expensive than processes. I would use Go for this service myself. Defending against abuse is hard whichever way one goes.
