7.7.3

Release 7.7.3

This minor update introduces an important optimization. We have identified that the RequestLimitingHandler within our base pipeline, while initially implemented to manage request throttling, is not effective while still slowing down RESTHeart. Given the complexity of efficiently handling request loads, we've concluded that utilizing a reverse proxy offers a more robust for request throttling.

Improvements

• Performance Enhancement: We have removed the RequestLimitingHandler from the base processing pipeline. This change is aimed at streamlining operations and reducing unnecessary overhead. As part of this update, we've also deprecated the requests-limit configuration option, reflecting our move towards leveraging external tools for more effective request management.
