How long does purging take?
The purge request is almost instantaneous, and the purge itself is completed within 5 seconds.
What is purged?
By default, the front page, and the individual post page are purged. You can additionally enable purging of tag, category, and monthly archives.
What are the limitations?
This API supports the following rate limits per customer:
- 6,000 URLs per minute (sustained)
- 5,000 URLs per second (burst)
Purge requests submitted at a higher rate results in a 507 error code. If you receive this error, wait 5 seconds and try again.
In addition, there is a strictly enforced 50,000 byte limit on the size of each request.
