Issues when I enable Component, maybe Right Sidebar Blocks?

If you work from a fixed IP, you could exclude your IP from rate limiting:

Available settings for global rate limits and throttling

It looks to me like if you have the web.ratelimited.template.yml installed, then these don’t matter since stuff gets rate limited by NGINX before it gets to Discourse, right? That’s how it seems from my nginx logs. My short term solution is to add my IP address to the local IP list, so it gets past NGINX. I guess the thing to do is remove the ratelimited template to make these have any meaning?

For a first test, I would skip rate limiting completely (just don’t use web.ratelimited.template.yml)

I bet you are correct, so what are good but more lax values for these settings in /var/discourse/templates/web.ratelimited.template.yml? Is it simply trial and error?

You might find the origin of the requests by browsing through nginx logs:

 ./launcher enter app
less /var/log/nginx/access.log
