Removal of speedtest.sahilister.in from librespeed.org pool

Open sahilister opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, it was great supporting librespeed.org while it lasted, but these past week the traffic has grown exponentially with uploads saturating my 1Gbps uplink for ~30 seconds at stretch, which would be leading to degraded speedtest experience at the time for everyone else. The traffic numbers have also increased to tone of almost ~3 TB (rx+tx)/day and growing. Seems more on the line of abuse rather than genuine traffic as I'm seeing multiple IP ranges doing 100k hits/day.

So I would request speedtest.sahilister.in to be removed from librespeed.org pool for now until I figure out a way to clean the traffic.

Once again, thanks for making this project.

Cheers! sahilister

Sure, I can disable it.

Before I do that though, you might want to rename your backend folder, that will get abusers off your back for a while. Write me at [email protected]
