How about your opinion?

I'd say let it go, unless someone else feels strongly about it.

I would use this module (rate limit new connection attempts) as soon as
I could. Putting a cap on potential CPU usage on a production DB by either
a blackhat or mistake by a developer caused by a mistake in
configuration (leaving the port accessible) is definitely useful, even
in the face of max_connections. My production apps already have
their connections and seldom need new ones. They all use CPU though.

If KaiGai updates the code per previous discussion, would you be
willing to take a crack at adding documentation?

P.S. Your email client seems to be setting the Reply-To address to a
ridiculous value.

OK, I'll revise my patch according to the previous discussion.
Please wait for about one week. I have a big event in this weekend.

Thanks,
