hibiscuskazeneko: i do see ASIN cover images… and my connection always is very bad but I do see them, in http and even in https

hmm, so it must have been a failure to load on my end

kepstin: thanks for your advanced rate limiter and explanations from yesterday… I have looked up for the rate limiting wiki guideline and, as I remembered, it says **max 1 request per second**. Is this page out dated ? https://github.com/jesus2099/konami-command/iss...

it is not in phase with the 503 error slow down pages, which say approx. **20 or so requests within something like 20〜40 seconds or something**

(i don’t remember exactly but I do remember that it says differently than the wiki)

i am looking for the place where it is said **max 10 within 10 seconds**

(it does ring a bell too)

jesus2099: I think the idea is that it's 1 per second

But it's made more like 20 every 20 seconds or the like, so that it's more "generally that speed" and less "exactly always that fast"

I do use the max1/1s approach. I’d like to know if the max10/10s (or max20/20s) approach is either *banned*, *tolerated* or *welcome*. :)

Freso: Could you, any time, gather the technical/official team “conclusion” to this ↑ for http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/XML_Web_Service/Rat... ?

sorry :)

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22Your+requests+are+... shows various numbers

that **45 per 20 seconds** is the one now I remember from the slow down pages… maybe we have various values, depending on if we usse the website or the web service(s)… ?

there is also 13 per 10 seconds and 22 per 20 seconds…

Freso: the spirit is 1 per 1 second but what is the most welcome approach for user scripts, is what I’m trying to find out

jesus2099: And... why are you asking me? Wouldn't it make more sense to ask bitmap?

jesus2099: The rate limit depends on who is doing the requests, mostly determined by the User-Agent string.

woo hoo

gotta say http://musicbrainz.org/event/b30ab236-02e8-4537... took a hella long time..phew

dr_saunde: Only 3 more years to catch up, eh?

dr_saunde: Not sure about the numbering on http://musicbrainz.org/series/2771c4c0-5105-431... though -- SXSW 2012 is not really #2012 in the SXSW series.

numbering more for sort purposes

if they actually numbered the events like say "15th SXSW" the i would have used that

dr_saunde: Doesn't automatic sort get it right?

I assume it sorts by date and/or name, doesn't it?

hi

can anyone find me a release which has 2 or more release events *and* two or more labels?

sure

"hell-o" by gwar

original release on shimmy disk, later release on metal blade

(and others)

(and its data in <B)

MB

do you have a release id?

I'm after a release, not a release-group

it's possible to have a single release with >1 cat num and >1 label

they're reported separately in the webservice and inerface though

alastairp: https://musicbrainz.org/release/8050a7d3-a100-4...

There are 863 of them.
