Vishal Tak requested to merge pages-tune-rate-limits-pre into master May 02, 2022

What does this MR do?

It was noticed in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/reliability/-/issues/15656#note_930674201 that the bucket size(burst) for domain rate limit is too high. This results in a delay in kicking in rate limiting. This MR reduces the initial bucket/burst size for the same.
