Hello Marc,
Thanks for the tip. I already have a blocked.list that is automatically
put into the IP tables. In this case, I didn't have the time to chase
down the offending IP address. It turns out that it was probably
a robot walking our git repo, so adding a simple robot exclusion has
probably corrected the problem.
Regards,
Kern

Hello Dan,
Thanks for the report. I shutdown Apache last night for about
6 hours because someone was saturating the CPU with some
cgi requests. Taking Apache down for about 5 minutes didn't work,
so I shut it down longer, and the problem "seems" to have gone
away.
Hint:
Next time maybe you could use iptables to block that IP instead of shutting
down the whole service ;)
iptables -I INPUT -s <source ip> -j DROP
Using the recent module of iptables you can even automatically unblock that IP
after a defined time.
