- Synopsis:
- set flood_rate [<number>]
-
- Description:
- This variable sets the message rate (per second) that will trigger the
- FLOOD hook, if the total message count exceeds the FLOOD_AFTER setting
- at the given rate. Thus, if messages from a remote client outpace the
- FLOOD_RATE for at least FLOOD_AFTER messages, the FLOOD hook is caught.
- If FLOOD_RATE is larger than FLOOD_AFTER, the client will not trigger
- the hook until at least FLOOD_RATE messages have been received.
