🚀 Performance Tips

Optimize your community extraction runs for speed, cost, and accuracy with these best practices:

💰 Cost Optimization

• Test First: Start with 1-2 communities to verify output quality before processing large batches
• Batch Processing: Process multiple communities in a single run to maximize efficiency (up to 100 per run)

⚡ Speed Optimization

• Direct IDs: Use community IDs instead of full URLs for slightly faster processing
• Parallel Processing: The actor processes up to 3 communities concurrently for optimal speed
• Proxy Rotation: Automatic proxy rotation prevents rate limiting and ensures consistent performance

🛡️ Accuracy Best Practices

• Public Communities: Only public communities are accessible; private communities will return "not found" status
• Valid IDs: Ensure community IDs are correct—invalid IDs will be skipped with error messages
• Real-Time Data: Data is extracted in real-time, reflecting the current state of the community

📊 Data Quality Tips

• Member Count Accuracy: Member counts are real-time snapshots; schedule regular runs for trend tracking
• Hashtag Freshness: Trending hashtags reflect current community activity and may change frequently
• Rule Completeness: All visible community rules are extracted; hidden or draft rules are not accessible
