I'm with Beckie on this one. B is the way to go. Gotta protect that application from getting hammered, but also keep those response times snappy. Can't have one without the other, you know?

Haha, C is just begging for some serious performance issues, don't you think? I mean, who in their right mind would choose to not enforce any rate limiting at all? That's just asking for trouble.

You know, I was initially thinking D - server-side rate limiting only. But then I realized that could lead to a lot of wasted client-side resources if the requests are getting throttled. B makes a lot more sense to me.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm definitely leaning towards B - implementing rate limiting on both the client and server sides. That way, we can protect the application from excessive use and also ensure low response latency.
