When deleting many events, Google's rate limiting kicks in

[ulysserevient]

Hi,
When I try to delete or cut many events in a google calendar, only few events are deleted.
I have to reproduce the deletion to complete.
Here is the message in the debug log

Lightning: [calGoogleCalendar] Deleting item toto failed:2147500037: {
 "error": {
  "errors": [
   {
    "domain": "usageLimits",
    "reason": "rateLimitExceeded",
    "message": "Rate Limit Exceeded"
   }
  ],
  "code": 403,
  "message": "Rate Limit Exceeded"
 }
}

It seems there is a limit for deletion !
Is there a solution ?

No body can help me ?

Ah yes, I can see why this would happen. Unfortunately I don't think there will be an easy fix, I'll have to build some sort of exponential backoff mechanism into all API operations. I'm consindering this an enhancement, the workaround for now is to delete less at once.
