Linode sent an alert that CGSpace (linode18) was using 350% CPU for the past two hours
I looked in the Activity pane of the Admin Control Panel and it seems that Google, Baidu, Yahoo, and Bing are all crawling with massive numbers of bots concurrently (~100 total, mostly Baidu and Google)
The good thing is that, according to dspace.log.2017-08-01, they are all using the same Tomcat session
This means our Tomcat Crawler Session Valve is working
But many of the bots are browsing dynamic URLs like:
/handle/10568/3353/discover
/handle/10568/16510/browse
The robots.txt only blocks the top-level /discover and /browse URLs&hellip; we will need to find a way to forbid them from accessing these!
Relevant issue from DSpace Jira (semi resolved in DSpace 6.0): https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-2962
It turns out that we&rsquo;re already adding the X-Robots-Tag &quot;none&quot; HTTP header, but this only forbids the search engine from indexing the page, not crawling it!
Also, the bot has to successfully browse the page first so it can receive the HTTP header&hellip;
