Actor is super slow

Closed

Hi,

I am using this actor for a month almost. Every time calling it from the same workflow that never changed. It usually takes around 15-40 seconds to scrape a youtube video\s informations.

Today i found out that it takes around 7 minutes to run the same node. in some cases it provokes errors in the workflow as it's taking too long to answer.

Do you know why his happens?

Hi, thanks for opening this issue!

We've also noticed the scraper working slower than we would like it to. You cannot however expect the scraper to always finish consistently, it's a web-scraper after all, constantly switching proxies to new ones and sometimes they take a long time or just timeout completely.

We will investigate and improve this, thanks!

The problem is that right now it's unusable, it fails 50% of the time.

Hello! Yesterday we experienced some problems with the proxies we use. Everything should be working now.

I'll close this issue but feel free to reopen it and notify us if the actor is not working as intended.
