The property allows you to limit how many new users' connection per second the server accepts on a particular port. Connections established within the limit are processed normally, all others are simply disconnected. This allows you to avoid server overload in case there is a huge number of users trying to connect at the same time. Mostly this happens after a server restart.
c2s {
connections {
5222 {
'new-connections-throttling' = 150L
}
}
}Here, this limits the number to 150 connections per second before connection attempts are dropped.
This replaces the old --new-connections-throttling property.
