ColdFusion must limit the request throttle memory.

Limiting the request throttle memory is essential to prevent resource exhaustion and potential denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Without a limit, an excessive number of large requests can overwhelm the server, consuming memory and other resources, leading to performance degradation or crashes. Any requests made above the throttle threshold are considered throttled and cumulatively their total request size cannot be above the throttle memory setting. Any throttled requests made while insufficient throttle memory remaining will be queued. Any requests larger than the throttle memory will be rejected. By setting a request throttle memory limit, the server can manage its resources more effectively, ensuring that it remains responsive and available to handle client requests efficiently.
