there's no default protection for that, but web2py creates a token for each form to prevent double submission. The same system should prevent brute-force insertions (that is, multiple simultaneous submission from the same user). If your problem lies into the realm of "this form shouldn't be submitted more than 5 times in 5 seconds" you can play a little bit with your controller....
