I introduced this setting (REQFLOOR 1r) now in my config file, I also 
included
FILEINCLUDE *.pdf

Still I don't see a single .pdf in the list of requested files (last 
listing in the report).
I have about 3000 .pdf file requests in the original apache access_log file.

I assume the file extension (FILEINCLUDE syntax) isn't case sensitive.

OK. Good to know. I just would like to know about a possible increase 
over all, assuming the behaviour of the clients remains the same.
