any learnings to share from optimization? what were the big wins?

- My videos were getting slammed, mostly Chinese videos.. Since removed Chinese traffic has dropped like 90% and data-out costs are way down and inline for first time, while daily uploads have been increasing... Likely wasn’t malicious, but being used as a video server for millions, something like that.. ex. Someone in Shanghai was uploading security video footage from multiple cameras every few hours.. There was a daily news channel.. Tons of other stuff..
- My main image directory had indexing on, so people were able to scrape all images.. Closed that and now charge to View All media....
- There are still some other features #[6] is helping me with, bots, and caching..
