This was a bug in 0.1.2.5-alpha and 0.1.2.6-alpha. The goal was to not enforce rate limiting on "internal" connections (127.0.0.1, 10/8, 192.168/16, etc), but it didn't quite happen. I fixed this in SVN r9369, and it will be part of 0.1.2.7-alpha. > depending on circumstances. By "big requests", I mean a request > like "GETINFO desc/all-recent" or "GETINFO ns/all". The reason this I made big requests work a lot better (I think) in r9382. Try upgrading to the latest SVN, and let us know if it works better for you. Thanks, --Roger
