pantry details about rate limit issue

[boly38]

Hi here

I'm studying pantry for a small project and starting from unit test I saw rate limit compared to pantry documentation

A Pantry can have up to 100 baskets (JSON objects), each with a max size of 1.44mb per basket. API requests are limited to 2 calls per second. That's it.

And after reading the previous FAQ entries, I've following questions:

• I think that 2 requests/second is a "normal best effort throughput limit" but not guarantees? (as shown in my test below)
• if overall traffic could impact individual rate limit (or response time), then can you share more details here (ex. what is the rate of "service with impacted delays"?)
• is implementing a retry mechanism a good thing or do you not recommend it at all

Anyway,
thanks for this free service ! 👍
