Month: July 2026

  • Oof, someone, or rather something, has decided to rapidly scan my entire site this morning, twice!

    Koko Analytics for last 28 days showing bar chart with tiny blue bars for last 28 days expect today which is a tall bar reaching 800 hits on site.

    It looks like it was from somewhere in Singapore, with stats narrowed down to today you can see every page was hit twice.

    Koko Analytics narrowed down to today (27/07/2026) showing 781 page views across 773 visitors, with 766 visitors from Singapore. Page hit counts are mostly 2 each.

    My site has been getting continuous scans from baidu.com out of China since I consolidated all my content, but it looks like google.com has kicked in recently too. This Singapore originating scan doesn’t seem to be setting a referrer.

    Looks like the scans from Singapore started around 7am this morning, and from the looks of things, are still going on, but seem to have slowed down.

    Glad I increased the PHP-FPM pool start/min/max/idle settings for my sites on this server a couple of weeks ago!
