I've just found by tweaking the fav crawler, that if I slow the crawler down, then the twitter API keeps responding. At the moment I'm injecting a 15 second wait between every 30 or so calls. I'll be playing around with that to see what I can get it down too. Tim. http://favstar.fm

Hey Twitter API devs, We're working on daemons to poll the search API, and we want to make sure that our code will behave correctly when it encounters a RETRY_AFTER header. We think our code should work correctly, but we'd like to be able to test it with a real RETRY_AFTER header. Could you add t

No - I pulled down the 7000 followers using the cursor calls - not just the ids. Tim. On Oct 15, 1:48 pm, Michael Steuer wrote: > So now that you pulled down 7000 IDs, are you making 7000 user/show calls to > get the rest of the details? How's that working out? > > On 10/14

Are you suggesting I should retrieve the 2k users 1 at a time from users/show once I have the ids? I'd essentially like to do this, but 100 at a time. I know I can get the 7000 ids in 2 calls (1 even without the cursors) - but I actually want the whole user objects.. Tim. On Oct 15, 2:
