Creating a control-flow configuration file

Many extensions, such as Control flow module, are managed using a configuration file.

To create a controlflow.properties file:

   This can be tricky as the label is not very long.

   # if a request waits in queue for more than 60 seconds it's not worth
   # executing, the client will  likely have given up by then
   timeout=60
   
   # don't allow the execution of more than 100 requests total in parallel
   ows.global=100
   
   # don't allow more than 10 GetMap in parallel
   ows.wms.getmap=10
   
   # don't allow more than 4 outputs with Excel output as it's memory bound
   ows.wfs.getfeature.application/msexcel=4
   
   # don't allow a single user to perform more than 6 requests in parallel
   # (6 being the Firefox default concurrency level at the time of writing)
   user=6
   
   # don't allow the execution of more than 16 tile requests in parallel
   # (assuming a server with 4 cores, GWC empirical tests show that throughput
   # peaks up at 4 x number of cores. Adjust as appropriate to your system)
   ows.gwc=16
