Architeuthis ?

NOTE: this is very WIP

HTTP(S) proxy with integrated load-balancing, rate-limiting and error handling. Built for automated web scraping.

• Strictly obeys configured rate-limiting for each IP & Host
• Seamless exponential backoff retries on timeout or error HTTP codes
• Requires no additional configuration for integration into existing programs

Typical use case
