Re: [YouTube-API] Re: Youtube Data API GET Request Rate Limits

Yeah, that's the conclusion I've come to so far, reading thread after thread on the subject. So even if I setup a test to hammer their servers from my server, it wouldn't be a real world rate limiting event, it would just block my server because of the flood of concurrent requests.

Perhaps it also doesn't matter! Do I have the problem of having 20 search requests per second?? Absolutely not. I'm trying to make sure that Google's limit doesn't kick in at 1 request p/s.... which as far as I can tell, it doesn't; it wont.

Anyone else have any thoughts on the subject?

As per google they are saying that there is no specific limit for that.

I've read most of the threads online, but the answers aren't really satisfactory.

Does anyone have a ballpark when Youtube will block my server from making API requests? Each request I'm making is legit traffic from a user searching on my site, and I have provided my developer key in the API requests.

So....how many requests per second could my server make? (Also I've got a DB search result cache in place as well to help keep the search traffic to a minimum.

Anyone have any insight?

Thanks,
Matt
