🚀 Performance Tips

Optimize your extraction runs for speed, cost, and data quality with these best practices:

💰 Cost Optimization

• Test First: Start with 1-2 communities to verify output quality before processing large batches
• Batch Processing: Extract multiple communities in separate runs to track costs per community
• Monitor Usage: Check the Apify Console's usage tab for real-time cost tracking

⚡ Speed Optimization

• Public Communities: Public subreddits load faster than restricted or private ones
• Parallel Runs: Process multiple communities simultaneously to maximize efficiency
• Peak Hours: Avoid Reddit's peak traffic hours (9 AM - 5 PM EST) for faster response times

🛡️ Data Quality Tips

• Verify Names: Ensure community names are correct and publicly accessible before running
• Recent Data: Community metadata updates frequently; schedule regular extractions for accuracy
• Complete Context: Rules and wikis provide essential context for community understanding

📊 Best Practices

• Rate Limits: The Actor handles rate limiting automatically with intelligent retries
• Data Freshness: Subscriber counts and active users are captured at extraction time
• Error Handling: Failed extractions return empty results; check logs for troubleshooting
