However, I am fairly skeptical that we could add per-key rate limiting
without introducing a non-trivial amount of overhead to record
generation, which would be a show stopper for this feature given its
expected limited appeal.
I understand the reservation. I will spend some time to analyze it impact
Steve, about your comment:
There just really isn't room to add more thinkgs without some
userspace API
problem. (This would definitely need a feaure bitmap so user space can make
sense of it.)
I was not aware that this could cause problems in the userspace API.
Key based filtering for rate limiting could be a useful feature. It is
something that would
help us a lot.
