Another question: I’ve got a Posthog job that’s been running for 5hr - is that normal/expected?

> There are separate limits for different kinds of resources.
>
> For all analytics endpoints (such as calculating insights, retrieving persons, or retrieving session recordings), the rate limits are 240/minute and 1200/hour.
>
> The query endpoint has a rate limit of 120/hour. This counts queries, rather than returned results. For large or regular exports of events, use batch exports.
>
> For feature flag local evaluation (which is enabled in SDKs when you input a personal API key), the rate limit is 600/minute.
>
> For the rest of the create, read, update, and delete endpoints, the rate limits are 480/minute and 4800/hour.
Depending on how much data you have, rate limiting might be slowing things down
Thanks for this. The thing is though… our app has been running for a month, and the Posthog job says it’s extracted 12,000,000 records and has been running for 25 hours. We have a grand total of 15 users or so (although a few thousand website visits). Not sure what’s going wrong there but 12M doesn’t seem right
