# Optional Configuration
## Requests rate limiting
The Discogs API has rate limitations as documented on the [discogs.com API
documentation pages](
https://www.discogs.com/developers#page:home,header:home-rate-limiting).
python3-discogs-client respects and handles these limitations automatically.
_Backing off and auto retry when API rate limit is hit_ is enabled by default and can be disabled as follows:
```python
>>> import discogs_client
>>> d = discogs_client.Client('ExampleApplication/0.1')
>>> d.backoff_enabled = False
```
## Request timeouts
By default the {class}`.Client` does not timeout requests.
For example, to enable a request timeout of 5 seconds:
```python
timeout_in_seconds = 5
client.set_timeout(
connect=timeout_in_seconds,
read=timeout_in_seconds
)
```
_Timeouts support integer and float values, you can also set either value to `None` to disable timeout for connect or read separately_
