Hi Peter at all,<br>
<br>
I am planning to also use graphhopper's matrix API in
optaplanner-webexamples,<br>
to generate the distance matrix for a number of locations in a VRP.<br>
<br>
But I worry about my example flooding your server (which would make
me a bad citizen).<br>
If I put no restrictions in it, and a user gives me a list n
locations, I am effectively asking for n² route distances....<br>
<br>
For this reason, Google Maps has quota's in place, but those were
really annoying when I generated the data for this post:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.optaplanner.org/blog/2015/03/20/3BugsInTheUltimateAmericanRoadTrip.html">http://www.optaplanner.org/blog/2015/03/20/3BugsInTheUltimateAmericanRoadTrip.html</a><br>
because I needed 50 locations, which is almost 2500 routes and they
only allow 2500 routes per day<br>
(so I had one shot per day to get it right).<br>
<br>
Does GraphHopper have quota's in place?<br>
If not, on what maximum number of locations should I restrict?<br>
Note: I don't want to host my own GraphHopper server as part of
optaplanner-webexamples (because that would mean including 6GB of
world map data), so I 'd like to reach out to your service.<br>
I do expect users to copy-paste the optaplanner-webexamples, but I
'll put in a clear warning that they also shouldn't flood your
server (=> host their own server etc).<br>
Wdyt?<br>
<br>
With kind regards,<br>
