It hit it, but I guess decompressed in a thread. It's a 127M archive that decompresses to 128GB. The bot kept scraping for a bit and then dropped off. Difficult to know if it was a discouragement.
Strange is that soon after other IPs were reaching statistically non-guessable randomly generated URL paths, without touching the webroot or another other tarpit URL prior. They all had iOS UA strings (readily forged).
