[SR-Users] Overload Control

Thanks, this is very much what I was looking for. It appears the ratelimit/piplimit modules offer some degree of overload control through queue drops and invite rejections based on a server's local cpu load. Some of the other overload control mechanisms described in the RFC (e.g. window based control and loss based control) would also be of interest to me. Not sure if public implementations exist or if they are restricted to research implementations. Thanks for the pointer to ratelimit nevertheless.

But also, check out this module:
