Maybe it's a good idea also to raise the wait from 0.5 seconds to 2 or something?

Hi! Good point, I experimented in the past with how much delay I could get away with and 0.5 seconds was a good middle ground for the instances I tested with. However, it's pretty obvious it's not ideal for everyone.

I think I will increase the default value to 2 seconds but also allow it to be overridden in the config file if the user wants to do so.

Hey, I added a mapping called delay_post which allows configuring how long the wait between submit requests is. By default is 0.5 seconds.
