I've been using this API in a currently limited capacity, but would like to soon use it for metadata calls related to 2000-10000 individual bounding boxes to gather info on overlapping Landsat 8 tiles. Each of the bounding boxes represents the bounds of polygons that belong to a feature collection. This feature collection is expected to refresh routinely, but will likely just have its contents replaced, so the size of it won't change significantly. Per my understanding of the documentation, I need to do a call for each polygon individually, so this would result in several thousand calls as I loop through each one.

To be respectful to you all as the developers, do you think this sort of operation would be feasible on your end, or should I expect automatic throttling/limits to my usage? Also if there is a way to do the entire feature collection all at once by passing a list of bounding boxes, that's fine too!

Thanks, all.
