However, it's important to understand the difference between the two approaches: - `middleware.http.ratelimit`: Time bound and limits the number of requests per second -- `app-max-concurrency`: Specifies the number of concurrent requests (and events) at any point of time. +- `app-max-concurrency`: Specifies the max number of concurrent requests (and events) at any point of time.
