There's a way to throttle the requests off to our Geocoder using JavaScript. Try creating a wait function to send off 5 geocode requests every second (i.e. 200ms intervals). If the requests are still failing, increase the delay, etc.
Saxan, are you geocoding the same 122 locations every page load? If so, you should probably pre-geocode them instead of geocoding them at run-time.
