Mike, do you ever compare your posts to the others on this forum? Do you notice any consistent qualitative difference?

It usually works great, but there are times when we are importing a ton of changes (e.g. 1800+) and I'm hitting the max amount of data REST::Client will accept.”
Okay, there’s your actual problem: throttling.

Wrong. Your analysis of the problem and your comprehension of the posts you are replying to is utterly wrong. The OP needs paging in handling a large HTTP response (as s/he well understood); it's nothing whatsoever to do with throttling requests to a server of any kind.

The rest of your comments, even if taken in the context of a discussion about throttling, are ignorant, vague, narcissistic, condescending, pompous and worthless all at the same time. Given your misunderstanding of what the topic even is, they are also irrelevant.

Suggestion: after a thought leaps into your head from 20 years ago and you craft one of your advice columns, before posting, open a separate window, re-review the thread you plan to reply to, and double-check whether you are at least speaking on the same subject.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
