## Issue Addressed #1056 ## Proposed Changes - Add a rate limiter to the RPC behaviour. This also means the rate limiting occurs just before the door to the application level, so the number of connections a peer opens does not affect this (this would happen in the future if put on the handler) - The algorithm used is the leaky bucket as a meter / token bucket implemented the GCRA way - Each protocol has its own limit. Due to the way the algorithm works, the "small" protocols have a hard limit, while bbrange and bbroot allow [burstiness](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Burstiness). This is so that a peer can't request hundreds of individual requests expecting only one block in a short period of time, it also allows a peer to send two half size requests instead of one with max if they want to without getting limited, and.. it also allows a peer to request a batch of the maximum size and then send _appropriately spaced_ requests of really small sizes. From what I've seen in sync this is plausible when reaching the target slot. ## Additional Info Needs to be heavily tested |
