Thanks for cPHulk Countries Management!

[willke]

I've just started using the cPHulk Countries Management feature and wanted to say a word of "Thanks" to cPanel.

I tested with initially blacklisting only 3 countries, who were the biggest culprits in the ConfigServer Deny list. After only 10 minutes, the cPHulk log file showed 26 blocked IPs with a "The country is blacklisted." message!

So as to not overload cPHulk, I plan to incrementally add more, depending on which countries appear in the ConfigServer Deny list.

*thumbs-up*

Hi Will,

Thanks for the positive feedback!

So as to not overload cPHulk, I plan to incrementally add more, depending on which countries appear in the ConfigServer Deny list.

Regarding the performance, here's a quote from a recent thread on that topic:

Quite a bit of work has gone into make sure it performs well. One of the big impediments to adding is sooner was resolving the performance concerns. In the released version, the matching is very fast and has a high-performance cache layer so it shouldn't cause any significant slowdowns.

Thanks!
