If a site cannot handle traffic from the real Googlebot that is a serious issue with the site itself since it's actually pretty conservative Also I should note

  Indeed, I've got a site which gets a lot of bot traffic and google bot is pretty sensible compared to a lot of other mainstream bots.

    Yes, it really does not make that many requests. In fact lots of site owners struggle with having it not crawl and index their site enough

  It is mostly, but it doesn't take a lot of googling to find sites getting ridiculous amounts of traffic from googlebot on google IPs. Its one of the most common complaints about google's search indexing

    Lots of people abuse Google Cloud to get a "Google IP" for a fake Googlebot. Why don't you show me a single screenshot from Google Search Console showing a high number of requests to a site that would be counted as a DoS? All requests from the official Googlebot are logged there so if it's such a common problem it must be very easy for you to show me this.

    Still waiting for a single shred of evidence ;)
