It uses the same single query but will pull 100 hits instead of 25.

I think the main thing is that unless your internet or computer sucks you should be using 100.

 

hey everyone, I scrape for batches in 10 second intervals typically all day so I can just go back and look and see what posted and compare when people are having secret secret side talks.

because I didn't see the point and didn't bother to change it

 

Yeah at 25 hits per a page you could easily miss hits on a 10 second scan.

 

1000 at .5 seconds or back to reddit

 

alright, I stand corrected. Thanks for the explanation all

Those dolan's name/email borked for anyone else?

 

Yes.

 

TBH - RA, 9 times out of 10, is more correct than not in his advice re: scripts. Its better to come at it from his perspective and ask yourself "why?" than hope he'll explain it in a way that doesn't make you want to punch your monitor but YMMV I guess.

At a 10s interval, you should absolutely being using 100 and not 25. You're missing stuff. A lot of it.

Unless the tool you're using sucks, then 100 is a bad idea. IIRC HF sucks & 100 is a bad idea @1s interval but I could be wrong. Also that's moreso for surveys than batches, 100@1s would be fine for batches

 

contact the requester they are very communcative
