KGS Website: Request Quota Exceeded

When I'm looking through the KGS Archives, I can look at my own account (with "expired" checked). Even though there were three years I was inactive, the months still show up and are clickable. That's annoying, but not a problem...

When I click through to figure out where my games start up again... I'm guaranteed to get "HTTP Status 503 - Request Quota Exceeded" from Apache Tomcat.

If it's that much strain on the server (I don't have to click through more than a year of months before I get the error), gray out empty months!

you're clicking through too fast then. just slow down, and wait.

the quota was put in place to prevent downloading bots/scripts from swamping the server with requests.

there are programs (can't remember the names of them at the moment) that will download all your games/stats with working within the quota limits.

KGS Analytics might better suit what you are trying to do.
There was a offline program that downloaded the games as well, but I can't find it now.

Does anyone know what the quota is? And once hit, how long does it take for a reset?

The question came up in the "Help Room" today, and no one could answer it.
