    Am i under attack?

    I have a large board and I'm seeing a LOT of visitors flooding it, making it very slow. I can look at the access logs, what should I be looking for to find out if I'm being attacked, and what can I do about it? Thanks for any help.

            When I say a lot of visitors flooding, I dont mean actual users posting a lot or anything like that, just a large number of visitors online that I doubt are real visitors.

                Just because I never needed to perform these tasks, doesnt mean I cant learn.
