Hi Team,
We have haproxy installed on a server which is being used primarily for front ending TLS. After session establishment it sets certain headers in the http request and forwards it to the application in the backend. The back end application is a tftp server and hence it can receive requests from a large number of clients.
What we observe on our server is that when we have large number of clients haproxy gets quite busy and the CPU clocks pretty high. Since both haproxy and our backend application run on the same server - this combined CPU can get close to the limit.
What we’d like to know is if there is a way to throttle the number of requests per second. All the searches so far - seem to indicate that we could rate limit based on src ip or http header. However, since our client ips will be different in the real world we wont be able to use that (less recurrence)
Could you please help? Is this possible?
