 This method of rate limiting is cumbersome, but has some advantages. It allows
 throttling of specific paths, and is also integrated into Git and container
 registry requests. See [Rack Attack initializer](rack_attack.md).

+# Rate limits on raw endpoints **(CORE ONLY)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/30829) in GitLab 12.2.
+
+This setting allows you to rate limit the requests to raw endpoints, defaults to `300` requests per minute. 
+It can be modified in **Admin Area > Network > Performance Optimization**.
+
+For example, requests over `300` per minute to `https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/raw/master/app/controllers/application_controller.rb` will be blocked.

+- Applied independently per project, per commit and per file path.
+- Not applied per IP address.
+- Active by default. To disable, set the option to `0`.
