I'm interested in the PoC if you get a chance.

I'm also interested if this is a tomcat problem or a Lucee problem. Are you experiencing this in the http handling or in other areas...i.e. cffile action="upload"

Also, what version of Lucee are you running, is it express or otherwise, what version of tomcat?

If you need a proof of concept script / binary, I can provide one. I'm able to take up 100% CPU on my local machine with only 4 requests. The workaround of limiting the header size does work, but it is not always a solution you can rely on.
