Hi everyone,

I’m encountering an issue with running multiple wandb runs simultaneously. I receive the error:

bash

Copy code

```auto
After 429 encountered (Filestream rate limit exceeded)

```

I understand this is related to my account’s rate limits, but are there any solutions or workarounds to mitigate this issue?

I would appreciate any insights or suggestions. Thank you!

Best regards,  
Nitzan

Hi Nitzan,

Good day and thank you for reaching out to us! Happy to help you on this.

We are happy to help you on this request. It appears that the process you were running overwhelms the system. For these cases, we had to rate limit you to maintain site stability.

We can increase your limit but before we proceed, can you describe to us your experimental setup, and what you are attempting to accomplish using the SDK? May we also request for your username in wandb?

Please also note that rate limits are being applied on the project level. Alternatively, you can try to log your data on a new project so you can proceed with your experiments. Let me know if this helps.

Thanks,  
Paulo
