It might be more advantegous to your inquiry, if you provided the User Agent as well?
69.31.103.0 - 69.31.103.255
nLayer Customer
Here's some more nLayer ranges you may wish to add (there may even be more in 2010; these numbers from 2007):
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^69\.22\.(12[8-9]|1[3-8][0-9]|19[01])\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^69\.31\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^69\.50\.(1[6-8][0-9]|19[01])\. [OR]

Thankx wilderness
I wanted to know if that IP belongs to any search engine bot? I do not have user agent with me. I will provide when i get that from my hosting company.
Can you please tell me if this ip is of any search engine bot? like google or yahoo? I blocked it but I am worried that if i blocked any search bot accidentally?

1.) I'm unfamiliar with that IP belonging to any known bot, and definitely not one of the majors. Regardless, if any 'visitor' -- bot or body -- is hitting hard enough to slow down a site, it's blockworthy.
That said, if you don't have access to your logs, the IP may not have caused the slow-down...
2.) How did you confirm that IP was the culprit?
3.) You can do your own WHOIS lookups through major registrars and countless sites like dnsstuff.com, domaintools.com, etc.

I look at fast rips through site as blockworthy... at the same time I look at the IP for more info to determine if it is a bot or a HUMAN with a site ripper... which means I also look at the UA to see if that has a bearing on the problem. Not all rapid requests are bots. Some are a$$holes copying local your content without reading it, though they think they might at some future time. Meanwhile, your bandwidth has been hit. Can't kill all those lookie loos...

I can't be 100% sure, but in my opinion it's not google. my 30 second research led me to a rather scrapy looking "business"
