Originally created by @FreedomBen on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Load hundreds of books from different authors into a library
  2. Visit the "authors" page
  3. Click "Match All Authors"
  4. Observe backend 429 errors from Audible API after several dozen lookups

Expected behaviour

  • Ideally the requests would be queued server-side to throttle them to avoid exceeding the rate limit threshold

Actual behaviour

  • All lookups start to fail with 429s from Audible API. If your library is big enough, you may even get an IP ban

Environment data

Audiobookshelf Version: 2.2.4. I can update and re-test in a little while but for the next week or so I need it to be perfectly stable as I'm traveling
