Reducing End to End latencies on the Internet Computer

There’s rate limiting and message validation for inter-canister calls, but I’m less clear on calls from outside the IC network. Here’s an interesting commit from last week that I just came across →

chore: add a per-boundary-node rate-limit of 1000 update calls per se… · dfinity/ic@4039ea2 (github.com)

^ I’m interested to see this commit at a time where update call performance is being significantly improved. Can I ask what the rate limiting mechanism was prior to this @rbirkner?
