See e.g. screenshot. The latest run timed out because I added a manual timeout to protect my bill. I did not touch the job, which had been working fine for weeks, with a longest run of 13 minutes. This happened with build 0.1.57, where the previous run was 0.0.254, and all runs before that were also 0.0.X. I suspect a regression. Looking at the downloaded .csv data, I see that where before each listing was one line, now they are often spread across multiple lines.

I have the same problem with the Zillow scraper.

I just reverted to 0.1.56, and it worked as it had been. I may also have been incorrect where I said previous runs were 0.0.X - maybe they were 0.1.56? Not sure why I saw different things, I may look into that post-coffee.
hi David, thanks for the report. There were some Zillow changes lately and I'll investigate the issues. If you can send me a run ID, it's easier for me to reproduce
