Lieu crawls fast; it seems to crawl at a rate of 5req/sec by default.

Normally, this wouldn't bee too worrying; however, the types of sites Lieu crawls are small hobbyist sites. Some peoples' sites may be self-hosted on limited hardware.

Respecting a crawl-delay robots.txt directive could help avoid overwhelming smaller sites.

FTR: I'm not reporting this because I've personally experienced increased server load; I'm reporting this because others may experience it.
