Block IP Range to be cached

    Hi, since a time ago I have noticed that some ips are asking to url of my syte. Reading about them, they seem to be a prefetch or something similar from Google (referrer from google.com). This ips ranges (193.186.4.X and 72.14.201.X) don’t open the full post, just asking for the post url (sometimes 20 or more per 2 minutes).

    I think, just my idea, that when I publish an article and those ips are asking a lot, they make the urls to be cached an then cpu resources (ram and i/o) comes crazy for a while. This IP range has a normal mobile user agent so I can′t block it. Is there any option to block caching this ip ranges and test if they are the problem?

    I am not exactly sure what do you mean by block caching on these IPs ?

    if they access the page, whether with or without cache , the CPU usage is done already

    Well, related with my other post about problems with cpu and ram after publishing editing, If this ips ask for 10 things at this moment and this are cached…. I just try to avoid this prefetch petitions to be cached and leave the system a little more efficient ( As I said this is not a full visit, its just a hit in the specific url that doesn′t load any image of resource from the specific post). Maybe this could help but its just and idea.

    At the moment I am trying to solved this high prefetching (its seem to be any kind og github experiment or something in which I have been included randomly)

    well, maybe you can try recaptcha , if it’s bot , then certainly it won’t be able to complete the recaptcha test, and then denied
