I agree with the NIO connector which gives good results to this
problem. Also, on Linux you can configure iptables firewall to limit
the number of connections from one IP (

What I find difficult about this approach is that because of NAT the number
of individual machines (and hence connections that are reasonable) behind a
single IP can vary vastly. What value will you pick to not discriminate
large organizations?

That is a reasonable question, but the owner of a web site should have some idea of who their clients are, and have a feel for a reasonable number to allow. Obviously a site with a large clientele will be able to handle a larger number of connections, whether they're legit or not.
