Re: Limit the number of connection per virtual host

Bear in mind that you only know which virtual host is requested
when you read the Host: header, which is after you already
accepted the connection.
There are third-party modules for managing loads and protecting
a server from attack.  Some of them might be worth a look.

I get your point Nick, but at last you can reject the request instead of sending it to a backend that is stuck or that answers too slowly.
