DDoS attacks are very rare. Many spiders and bots hitting your site isn't a attack. Thousands of them at the same time, all downloading images and larger files, is.
You can block "bad" spiders and bots quite easily, using this mod.In addition you should change the usergroup permissions, setting limits on signature images. For future.
Thanks MAX I am thankful to you i am already using this mood and soon i'll disable the CF also i have remove gif images from signatures and have made settings also
Today i have see the result its much better for me have look it

but one thing is confusing me the page load time is just 2.89s but the GTmetrix showing page speed down grade is 67 .. whats wrong with it?
Don't use gtmetrix for objective testing - they are trying to sell you optimization services. Use WebPageTest only. It is real world, objective and not trying to sell you anything.
I re-test you, same thread and same test parameters, and you're down to just under 5 megabytes now. There still exist several massive animated GIF images in signatures. There is only a tiny bit of improvement here.

would u like to tell me how i can specify image dimensions ?
The gif images may add some load time but if you are serving them from your file system they should not increase mysql load.
These are signature images that are being served third party, there is no way for him to control them or move them. He just has to LIMIT them. Nobody needs a 4 megabyte signature image.

yes but that is not the cause of his high cpu usage or mysql load.

Yeah I'm just trying to get the pageload down out of the 8 megabyte crazy tree so we can see what is going on with showthread.php - which is the page his host says is causing all the server load.

Why don't you just take a look at them and scroll through them, options exist there for limiting signature images, avatars, uploads, everything.

In usergroup permissions you can limit the file size of signature images, avatar images, uploaded images, all images. You can also specify if animated GIFs are allowed at all or not.
