Concerned about > 15K requests/hour from one Jupyter session?

Hi all!

One of our architects noticed that some users’ OOD Jupyter sessions were performing a massive amount of requests. One user’s session made over 15K requests in an hour, judging from syslog entries from the “ondemand-httpd” service. Should we be concerned?

I can provide more info from the syslog entries, if you need it.

Thanks as always,

Ron: Requests to what?

Not sure what specifically you are looking at, but I will point out that Jupyter is by far the most popular app within the Open OnDemand ecosystem. It’s widely deployed at hundreds if not thousands of sites without any issue.
