Patrick, Yes. Each whitelisted IP address is allowed 2 requests per hour. I will clarify this point in the documentation.

Thanks, Doug. What about IPv6 Whitelisting? I haven't tried it, yet, but curious if it works. -- Patrick Burrows http://www.CleverHumans.com On Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 1:32 PM, Doug Williams wrote: > Patrick, > Yes.

Currently only whitelisting IPv4 addresses.

I've followed this list for a couple days and hadn't seen this specific question come up. My application has been white listed. In doing so, I specified a set of 5 IP addresses from which traffic from my application may come. TFM states [1]: we offer whitelisting which will raise an account or IP address' rate limit to 2 requests per hour. My understanding is that this means each of my 5 IP Addresses can make 20,000 unique API requests per hour (for a total of 120,000 API requests / hr as long as I write some sort of IP Address load balancing code.) But I have not seen that actually spelled out in so many words. Is my assumption correct? (my app is nowhere near that limit, but I am working on some capacity planning numbers.) If my assumption is correct, is there a further limit on the number of unique addresses my Application can have whitelisted? Also, is whitelisting limited to IPv4? I have not yet tried it with any IPv6 addresses. [1] http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Rate-limiting?SearchFor=white+list&sp=1 -- Patrick Burrows http://www.CleverHumans.com >>> >>> >> >
