Assert that rate limiting works on group id

Stop the kids from spamming our server

In case the kids fuck with the nexus we don't want them to crash our swag

Goal here is to crash the server

realAndrewCohn commented 6 years ago

Tried to crash with while true loop and iterating up to Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER. Chrome crashed and the server didn't even get the requests. The rate limiter is POWERFUL

Closing this. Tested w/ while true loop and other nonsense. Chrome will crash but the server stands strong
