How Can I Speed Up My Requests?

If you’re looking to speed up your requests, here are a few key points to consider:

1. Avoid JS Rendering When Possible: Using the js_render=true parameter can slow down your requests since rendering JavaScript is a time-consuming process. If you don’t need JavaScript rendering for the content you’re trying to scrape, it’s best to avoid it.

2. Limit Waiting for Specific Conditions: Parameters like wait and wait_for can also slow things down, as they require the request to wait for certain conditions to be met before completing. This means the request takes longer to finish, tying up resources and delaying the next one. Use these parameters sparingly and only when necessary.

3. Use Premium Proxies: On the flip side, using the premium_proxy parameter can actually speed up your requests. Premium proxies tend to be more reliable and faster, reducing the time it takes to retrieve content and complete the request.

By carefully considering these factors, you can optimize your scraping process and reduce the time your requests take.
