Request limit for a resource

[Caulet]

Hi,

I wrote a script to reset a repository (delete + create).

After 350 requests (175 delete/175 create) I started to get the Rate limit for this resource has been exceeded message.

This should represent one request every 3 seconds, 20 requests per minutes. 120 requests per hours.

We are far from your 60,000 request per hour.

Can you tell me why I get this message?

forgot to tell my script was blocked after 18min, when 350 requests were processed.

18*60/350 = 3 seconds per requests

3 seconds per request  = 20 request / per minutes = 1200 requests per hour.

Maybe my maths are wrong, but that' not 60k per hour. I am using REST API.

1200 req per hours
