The cost to run the actor was nearly $1 for 67 results and took over 30 minutes; here is the run ID:

Here is another run (from an earlier build) that timeout today after 30 minutes, only returning 30 results and costing $0.50; here is the run ID:

This actor used to return similar results (80+) in a much quicker time (around 10 minutes) and costs around $0.25; here are some run IDs:

Hey there!

Thank you very much for the wait time. It seems like the problem that you faced was happening due to the Proxy Quality. However, we just deployed a version to improve the actor's proxy handling and it should work in a better way now.

  • Apify's default Residential proxies performed well in the last build that we had.
  • Apify's default Datacenter proxies encounters Rate Limit (429) errors. This means that they are passing the protection but since they are shared across users, they hit the limitation.

As mentioned, it should work better now but maybe you might think to use a custom proxy pool for the best experience. Best
