From 02/Jul/2022:06:37:59 until 02/Jul/2022:17:20:29 (over 10h43m) ICANN has made 181884 requests to our homepage. That's 282 per minute.

From ICANN:

I disabled the deployment a few minutes ago and I don't see that traffic going out through our gateways anymore.

It is possible some of our developers use rails-assets.org in their deployments through the rails-assets.icann.org proxy. Disabling the LTM pools should have stopped requests for the proxy.

Traffic just dropped dramatically.
