Issue: High Query Cost Due to Repetitive Runs for Multiple Pincodes & Unnecessary Historical Data Fetching

Open

Description: I am experiencing high costs while running my queries due to the following reasons:

Single Pincode Limitation:

The actor only allows one pincode (postalCode) at a time, forcing me to execute multiple runs for different pincodes. This significantly increases the number of executions and overall costs. A bulk pincode option or a way to handle multiple pincodes in a single run would help optimize usage. Historical Data Re-fetching:

I have already fetched historical reviews once, and now I only need new daily reviews. Despite setting reviewsStartDate, the query cost remains high. It seems like the actor might be processing unnecessary data or fetching older reviews. A more efficient way to fetch only new reviews without redundant processing would help reduce the cost.

please suggest me optimization for my query for google maps scrapper.
