Export Any Size, and Queue Far More Backticks

Export Any Size, and Queue Far More Backticks

Two limits that used to interrupt real work are gone. Backtick has far more room to run tests, and an export no longer fails because the file is large.

More than five times the room to run tests

Hardware upgrades behind Backtick let us raise our rate limits to more than five times what they were, so you can run far more tests before anything asks you to slow down. We expect 99% of members will never see a cooldown again.

Large exports prepare in the background

Bot activity log exports over 50,000 rows, and Backtick trade-log exports over 100,000 rows, no longer run inside the page request. They are handed to a background worker and you get a confirmation immediately, instead of watching a download stall and give up.

Smaller exports are unchanged. They still download the moment you click, exactly as before.

Your file waits for you for a week

When the export finishes, a notification arrives with a download button and the exact day and time the link expires. Files are served from cdn.tradesteward.com and stay available for seven days, so you can start a large export, close the tab, and come back the next day to collect it.

Both export types notify you the same way, with the download link and the day it expires.

Run the tests you want, export whatever you need at whatever size, and queue your next run without waiting on the last one.
