PhabricatorStartup.php

<?php

/**
 * Handle request startup, before loading the environment or libraries. This
 * class bootstraps the request state up to the point where we can enter
 * Phabricator code.
 *
 * NOTE: This class MUST NOT have any dependencies. It runs before libraries
 * load.
 *
 * Rate Limiting
 * =============
 *
 * Phabricator limits the rate at which clients can request pages, and issues
 * HTTP 429 "Too Many Requests" responses if clients request too many pages too
 * quickly. Although this is not a complete defense against high-volume attacks,
 * it can  protect an install against aggressive crawlers, security scanners,
 * and some types of malicious activity.
 *
 * To perform rate limiting, each page increments a score counter for the
 * requesting user's IP. The page can give the IP more points for an expensive
 * request, or fewer for an authetnicated request.
 *
 * Score counters are kept in buckets, and writes move to a new bucket every
 * minute. After a few minutes (defined by @{method:getRateLimitBucketCount}),
 * the oldest bucket is discarded. This provides a simple mechanism for keeping
 * track of scores without needing to store, access, or read very much data.
 *
 * Users are allowed to accumulate up to 1000 points per minute, averaged across
 * all of the tracked buckets.
