Hi, As you might imagine the resources of the sandbox environment are more limited than production, that is why you might get RATE_EXCEEDED errors that you won't ever see in production. There is nothing we can do in our side to avoid this issue. But in general I recommend you in your side implementing an exponential backoff algorithm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff, so your code correctly reacts to this type or error. And as a good enough slot time I would use 30s. In general implementing this type of algorithm is worth it because when your traffic increases (which is a good thing :)) you are prepared to this type of error even in your production code.
