You seem to have misunderstood.
< 1000 per hour: built-in polling
> 1000 per hour and < 1000 per second: grammY runner
> 1000 per second: grammY runner with multitasking (bot workers)
Thanks for the initiative to fix up the docs directly, though, we need more people with this level of engagement 🎉
@KnorpelSenf The included screenshot in my original is not what I was PRing about. I am referring to the README of this repo. Grammy runner is not needed for just 1k reqs per hour.
Grammy runner is not needed for just 1k reqs per hour
1K req/h means roughly one message every 3 seconds. Middleware can sometimes take an entire second to complete, especially if the Bot API server slows down requests due to rate limits. Some bots have a periodic 15-fold load change in the course of each day, depending on the timezones of their user base. This means that bots with an average 1K req/hour can easily receive 3 messages per second. In fact, in some minutes, there can be load spikes with high activity, resulting in 10-20 messages per second.
The built-in polling processes updates in sequence. In total, this means that 1K req/hour can lead to several seconds of wait time for users. It makes a lot of sense to use grammY runner for such bots.
Perhaps one can argue that 2-3K req/h are still acceptable guidelines, but I want to keep the numbers very simple. 1K req/h is the order of magnitude to remember.
The "do I need this?" section says 1k requests per hour is enough to start using this repo. It should be 1k/second
