Yes - I have seen it on a number of occasions recently.



I wonder what is causing it?

We are under pressure from bots which is overloading the server/database, I'm working on blocking them.

Not sure on the exact environment you’re working with but have you thought of putting cloudflare or something similar in front of the website? It tends to be useful for most people. Pretty good at detecting whether human or bot as well as mitigate the normal DDoS, both volumetric or protocol specific, stuff.

Or if that is too invasive, perhaps the Turnstile service would work instead? See https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/, there is a free plan which does not have volume limits.

I Will report back when resolved, so this should be considered ongoing at the moment.
