Honestly, you really shouldn't have to hit "36,000 requests per minute" scraping a website for price updates. Can someone explain if there is any scenario in which this is reasonable? Do QVC's prices change that often?
- xur17 12y agoYeah, this really stood out to me. 600 requests per second against one website seems pretty insane. I can see why QVC is suing.
- tomjen3 12y agoJust a guess, assuming they have a lot of different things they sell? Also it may go through a partial checkout flow for each item (to find the shipping rates, etc). Still yeah, that is too much.
