Rate Limiting

Added in version 2.0.0

Limit Number of Requests per Second

Version 2.0.0 added the ability to limit the number of requests per second.

Examples

Limit number of requests per second, per directory, to 100 (requests per second will increase by 100 for each active directory found during recursion)

./feroxbuster -u http://localhost --rate-limit 100

Limit number of requests per second to 100 to the target as a whole (only one directory at a time will be scanned, thus limiting the number of requests per second overall)

./feroxbuster -u http://localhost --rate-limit 100 --scan-limit 1
