Hi W&B team,

I just encounter this issue recently:

> wandb: 429 encountered (Filestream rate limit exceeded, retrying in 37.6 seconds.), retrying request

I didn’t change any part of my code, and it has been working for over 6 months with countless runs. Is this a new issue and how can I fix it, or can you help me to increase my rate limit?

Thanks.

Hi @joana-marie,

Thanks for getting back to me. However, I still have the 429 issue now and then.

Thanks
