Temporary increase in query limit per minute
pubblicato da CupidvogelSTAFFMOD il 3 giugno, 2016 alle 5:11PM
I am querying the movie dataset by id. Problem is, if I do it on my Mac, it might take me weeks to end up querying the entire dataset (the movies range upto 400,000 in terms of id), whereas if I run the same on my 64 GB RAM Linux dev desktop, it happens in so lightning fast manner that it will probably take 5-6 hours to cache the entire movie dataset. However, because it is so fast and efficient in writing the retrieved data to disk, I am exceeding the 40 hits/minute limit, hence I am receiving error messages. Can this be temporarily suspended so that I can finish it in one go?

Hi Cupidvogel,
Unfortunately at this time I do not have any way of suspending/adjusting the limit per API key. Keep in mind though, that the limit is enforced by IP address so if you can get another IP to be importing you'll double the limits.
