Getting slammed by a client

  Is anyone else getting slammed by 70.113.100.216?  Does anyone know who
this is?  I don't mind my server being used by clients as a test platform,
but making a few hundred requests per second is a bit much.  Also, a bunch
of bogus requests.

  Sigh.

  I don't really want to block it, but whoever is responsible for it is
doing a bad job at parsing URLs and a request of "" is NOT a valid Gemini
request.

  On the plus side, it did flush out a bug in GLV-1.12556, so there's that.
