It's interesting that I agree with the article that you linked? I'm not contesting that it's completely possible to hit the limits in play, but 16k connections

I'm not contesting that it's completely possible to hit the limits in play, but 16k connections (per IP) is high enough that I don't think that's a common problem, even in public-facing web services. Granted, I suspect the services I've run professionally all dealt with it by making it the problem of a load balancer in front of the application and internal network, but... you probably have that anyways, so I'm still not seeing the problem.
- dijit 7mo agoit’s interesting because I think youve internalised the constraint and built mechanisms around it rather than engaging directly with it, subconsciously.
- yjftsjthsd-h 7mo agoI'm not sure why that would be interesting either, but no, it's not a constraint I've ever hit so I doubt that I'd bother avoiding it, subconsciously or otherwise.
