bbPress doing a lot of HEAD/GETs
-
I’ve got a bbpress install which I run as support forum. I sometimes post links to zip files in there with patch fixes on them.
I was looking at my webstats and noticed :
a) A huge number of hits on my zip files
b) A huge increase in bandwith against my website from my own server
Checking my access logs I see:
