--- Comment #3 from Gabriel Wicke <[email protected]> ---
We dequeue Parsoid jobs in a throttled manner to avoid overloading the API
during edit spikes. This means that abnormal edit rates especially to templates
can create a large backlog of jobs in the Parsoid queue. This is then slowly
processed over time. Since this is a separate queue this won't hold up other
job queues.

The main issue seems to be MZMcBride's null editing at a rate way beyond even
bot edit limits. Do we have a product for DoS attack detection and -mitigation?
