apache-mod_bwshare-0.2.0-4mdv2008.1.src.rpm

Description:

The Apache shaping module "bwshare" uses a form of "statistical shaping". This
means that the software measures the statistical behaviour of the subscriber in
the past, and uses this as a basis for controlling the current access to
resources by the user.

The purpose of this module is to give the web site operator some control over
bandwidth utilization by individual client hosts. The "bwshare" module
temporarily blocks access by excessive users. This is aimed especially at users
who download whole websites at great speed. Excessive speed is considered bad
etiquette for search engine robots.
