add note about the number of request to the STAC API #4

Basically we do 1 request to a STAC API /search per tile request.

titiler-stacapi should be used respectfully to any STAC API provider 🙏

By respectfully, do you mean limiting the number of requests regarding the load for STAC API providers?

vincentsarago commented 6 months ago

yeah, make a note explaining that one tile request will result in one GET request to the STAC API.

People needs to be aware that this could arm endpoints! 1 Map load = ~10tiles ~= 10 get requests, as people zoom/pan, it will results in a lot of STAC API requests
