whats a reasonable amount of blocks

Post by keat63 »

I currently have LFD configured for 400 Ip blocks, which is filling up fast.
I understand that once the table has reached 400, they will fall off the end.
What's a reasonable upper limit without causing too much overhead ?

Currently using 1250 on one Virtuozzo VPS without apparent issues.

On a dedicated you could consider using IP Block Lists. http://download.configserver.com/csf/readme.txt - #24.
