<div dir="ltr">Yup, exactly, I was running many small queries in parallel. Aggregating them into one query resolved it. If the query bbox grows too big--right now looking at ~60% of the DRC, but will need to expand the query to run across all of the Congo Basin--then I'll divide into country-sized queries but be sure not to run them simultaneously.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 4:20 PM, Roland Olbricht <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:roland.olbricht@gmx.de" target="_blank">roland.olbricht@gmx.de</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="">
Yeah, that all makes sense. I had spent a lot of time trying to limit<br></span>
the area I was searching against, and the result was a /429 Too Many<br>

Thank you for the feedback.<br>
<br>
Just for clarification: You should get HTTP 429 only if you submit more than one request in parallel. This help other users to also get a chance that their queries are executed.<br>
<br>
If you get HTTP 429 in another case, please enforce that there is no runaway query by calling<br>
<a href="http://overpass-api.de/api/kill_my_queries" target="_blank">http://overpass-api.de/api/<u></u>kill_my_queries</a><br>
This kills another query from your IP adress if any is running.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
