Throttleing the SYN connects is actually a good idea but that will
limit "valid" LowID clients you asked to connect too.

I'm trying to mark connection to "initiated by me" and "initiated by
someone else" and account the traffic for each seperatly ot get an
image of whats actually happening. I'm probably going to do some
iptbales SNAT magic to get them into different port ranges. Wish me
luck.
