I think it would be also good to limit the maximum number of
clients, but I'm not sure what exactly should be counted (as there are
multiple lists of addresses separated by the interval) and also what
to do when the limit is reached. Keep all addresses in a queue and
drop the one that had the oldest request?

Thoughts?
