I just did a batch of ~50 input URLs. I only got an output of 28 URls which cost $5 in credits.

This is super inefficient. What I think is happening is the scraper scrapes all the input URLs first and gets all the initial product data, and only once ALL urls are scraped do the individual URLs get scraped.

Instead it should Scrape the input URL, get the target URLs and scrape those, THEN move on to the next input URL. This would be a lot better use of credits.

Hey there,

Thank you very much for reaching out, and letting us know about your inquiry. Unfortunately, the Apify SDK doesn't provide a proper prioritization system. It only allows forefronting which we properly introduced already. The main problem is Aliexpress which keeps increasing its protection system and makes the scraping process expensive. Unfortunately, there is not much to do at the current moment.
