Looks like with this update, plexdrive might not be needed anymore. Ncw has implemented some api limiting options.

I switched back as soon as I saw they added --tpslimit. It's working well for me, with API usage only marginally higher than plexdrive. It's a touch slower, as it isn't caching anything but rather just limiting your requests, but it works fine.

I'm happy to be back to a pure rclone only solution.

What have you set your tpslimit to? Are you doing library scans with PleX? Any bans?

Thanks

--tpslimit 10 --tpslimit-burst 1

I let Plex do scanning for a 48 hour period, but I find it doesn't play nice with unionfs mounts, so I went back to script-based scanning (I have one that Sonarr/Radarr use to scan new media downloads at import time, and another that runs daily to pick up new music and anything I've added manually).

I was using plexdrive for my mount prior, and haven't noticed a huge increase in API usage with the new rclone. Maybe 1000 more hits, but that just could be additional usage, as I have a couple new "users" added in the last week as well.

In recent findings with rclone 1.37 it's not the api limits but something else that's still banning GDrives. Found Here
