Lower proxy data consumption

Closed

Hey, I'd like to ask if you see any potential to lower proxy data usage for this actor? Proxy cost is a significant one, and I'd love it if we could lower it (disable downloading large files like images, movies, etc.).

Hi! Actor based on no-browser approach, so all current traffic is html data to get page details. Can you please elaborate with the sample run what you want to keep as page details and what you might want to skip? In other words to decrease proxy usage need to get less data, all current traffic related to some values in dataset.

p.s. just to be sure - you mean this actor precisely, not getting images or videos as files in some other way? If you download images or videos by URLs from dataset then you can use no proxy at all or datacenter proxy
