What are the real limitations of vk.api at the moment?

Question

API

Their info From the client side, you can access API methods no more than 3 times per second.
As I understand it is not true.
(I'm interested in applied applications).

Answer 1

From the client side, you can access API methods no more than 3 times per second.
The maximum number of requests from the server side depends on the number of users who installed the application.
If the application is installed by less than 10,000 people, then you can make 5 requests per second, up to 100,000 - 8 requests, up to 1,000,000 - 20 requests, more than 1 million - 35 requests per second.
If these values ​​are exceeded, the server will return an error with code 6: "Too many requests per second.".
If the logic of your application involves calling several methods in a row, it makes sense to pay attention to the execute method.
In addition to restrictions on the frequency of calls, there are also quantitative restrictions on calling methods of the same type. For obvious reasons, we do not provide information on the exact limits.
After exceeding the quantitative limit, access to a particular method may require entering a captcha (see captcha_error), and then may be temporarily restricted (in this case, the server does not return a response to a particular method call, but processes any other requests without problems).
Why does it not correspond to reality? run a loop and contact api) or better, immediately run 10 threads in a row and see what they return.
