Wandb: 429 encountered Filestream rate limit exceeded

W&B Help
1

Hi, is it possible to increase the rate limit for wandb?

It’s getting quite intrusive in the training process with lots of failure messages such as: wandb: 429 encountered (Filestream rate limit exceeded, retrying in 2.2 seconds.)

Thanks in advance :handshake:

Hi @alex-desroches7,

Happy to help. We have doubled your rate limit to the maximum allowed to our free users. If you prefer not to work through constraints of rate limits, we highly recommend using wandb locally on your machine. Please see our free self-hosted solution to set up, Basic Setup | Weights & Biases Documentation. Marking this resolved but please do let me know if you have any questions.

yep, same here as well; looks like it’s a prevailing issue (bug) on the wandb side? I did not change anything on my code

Same here!!
Looks like an outage in wandb ?

The same session that worked 8 hours ago doesn’t work now. I’m seeing the same issue. Has there been changes on the server side? Is there any way for us to monitor the rate limit?

Same. I meet this issue too. Is there any possibility of increasing my rate limit, too? Thank you very much!

Same problem here, and my use of wandb is very limited. I do sequential runs and only log every ~30 seconds.

It seems to be a general problem because a lot of people are experiencing it at the same time.
