"""Utilities for disabling Django Rest Framework rate limiting.
This is useful for performance tests in which we need to generate
a lot of traffic from a particular IP address. By default,
Django Rest Framework uses the IP address to throttle traffic
for users who are not authenticated.
To disable rate limiting:
1) Decorate the Django Rest Framework APIView with `@can_disable_rate_limit`
2) In Django's admin interface, set `RateLimitConfiguration.enabled` to False.
Note: You should NEVER disable rate limiting in production.

function to enforce rate-limiting.

func (function): The function to decorate.

The decorated function.
