are maximum Limit values documented somewhere?

The Limit property is just a number, but it is different for different API endpoints. I'd like to have a list of the different values so i can easily stay within the max for each endpoint. Are the values documented somewhere? From the official js-client docs site, not even a given endpoint documents its maximum.

hm, yes but they're rate limits, not the maximum values that can be passed to the limit param. they must be different because my rate limits are post: 6, comment: 6, and that's definitely not the max value for limit for fetching those items.

I don't think they're documented anywhere. I resorted to just trying out the performance limits.

  • For posts I recommend going with 10 per page and loading the rest on demand.
  • For Comments try to only load a couple per request and then do a bunch of chained requests

actually it would be very helpful to know the maximum value for any of the 'number' parameters in the API.
