Hack to limit number of loops (763 bytes, patch)
2007-10-31 06:05 UTC, Michal Čihař 		none Details | Review

Description Michal Čihař 2007-10-31 05:54:36 UTC 
Synchronizing bookmarks leads to freeze for me. This is caused by aggressive throttling rules applied by del.icio.us to https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/all and by stupid code in libepilicious/delicious.py.

I did not yet done any synchronisation, but for some reason I got already blocked  by del.icio.us (maybe NAT issue, I don't know), so I can not access https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/all at all - it always gives me HTTP 503.

The reaction of epilicious on this is quite stupid - it loops forever and waits till it gets another reply than HTTP 503, which will probably take insanely long!

Hack to limit number of loops

I created simple patch which limits number of loops to 3. As each loop means 30 seconds, I think it is enough time to consider we will fail anyway.
