the token bucket can hold a maximum of 15 tokens, allowing a “burst” of 15 requests in a second. But only 10 tokens get added back in the next second, so if 15 requests occur again in the very next second, there will only be 10 tokens to satisfy the request and 5 of the requests will be denied with a response code of 429.

@Lioness

Each request we receive decrements their outstanding requests per second limit by 1.

Above is a screenshot of my logs from earlier this month. I was logging this information specifically because I was receiving mysterious 429 codes and I wanted to ensure my code was not the source of the issue. I sent out no more than 1 request per second and this is still how my code operates today. If it is true that I am allowed 10 requests per second (15 in burst), there is no explanation on my end why I am receiving a 429 rate limit error.
