Thanks!

Do replication agents use the Sling Job Thread Pool (org.apache.sling.event.impl.EventingThreadPool)? If not, is there another thread pool used for replication?

Yeah, I appreciate the suggestion gauravb10066713​ but we won't be doing that. SEO may be one problem, but we also don't want users' browsers caching those responses as 200s.

Will do! Thanks Joerg!

Hi PuzanovsP​, it's both.We are seeing some malicious traffic though it looks like hackers attempting to gather logins (wp-login.php) rather than actual DDoS.We also have authors who distribute bad links. That's an organizational problem and not one that I can deal with (though we are working on it)...

Arun, we've already configured our site link so Adobe CQ/Adobe AEM: How to cache Error page in CQ  but I don't believe that actually shields publish from requests to non-existent resources.Rather it simply caches the 404 page in a fixed location on dispatcher so that publish only has to build the er...

We are NOT sure it will be a 404. The request may or may not be valid. Depends on if authors have put content there or not.I'm talking about a dynamic strategy whereby dispatcher will NOT hit publish with the same request twice in the case of a non-existent page.Perhaps this could be part of some at...

We are seeing a large amount of 404 requests on our AEM application putting undue load on our publish server. Found requests get cached on dispatcher, but 404s fall through to publish even if the same location was requested a minute ago.Is there a way to configure dispatcher to cache 404s? For examp...

I do mean in the component code (not in a page template).Let me give you a use case. We have some templates that handle certain image display for various AEM models. These components should generate different markup depending on the type of image (for example, we want to lazy load PNGs but not JPGs)...

What if I don't have a sling model in the HTL where I need the reg ex functionality? For example in a template?
