Server Settings > Request Tuning 
The Request Tuning settings can help mitigate the ability to perform a successful Denial of Service (DOS) 
attack on your server. 
Setting 
Default 
Recommendation 
Description 
Maximum number 
of simultaneous 
Template requests 
25 
Tuned based on 
hardware 
capabilities, and 
application 
characteristics. 
When this setting is too high or too 
low the ability to perform a denial 
of service attack increases. When 
too low requests will be queued 
when the server is placed under 
load. When too high requests may 
not be queued under load causing 
the CPU time of all requests to 
increase significantly (known as 
context switching). Find a good 
medium by performing load tests 
against your production 
environment, use the value that has 
the ability to serve the most 
requests per second. 
Maximum number 
of simultaneous 
Flash Remoting 
requests 
5 
1 if not using Flash 
Remoting, 
otherwise tuned. 
If your applications do not use flash 
remoting set this value to 1. If you 
do use flash remoting use a load 
testing approach to find the optimal 
value for this setting. Note that the 
Server Monitor feature in Enterprise 
makes use of flash remoting. 
Maximum number 
of simultaneous 
Web Service 
requests 
5 
1 if not publishing 
SOAP web 
services, otherwise 
tuned 
If your applications do not publish 
SOAP web services set this value to 
1. Otherwise tune this setting using 
load tests.
