Q: Amazon API / Bottlenose / MaxQPS

I am using bottlenose to access the Amazon Product API. As the author is recommending I am throttling the requests with MaxQPS=0.9.

It seems to have no effect. I still get 503 errors after some requests. When changing to MaxQPS=0.1 (which should work for sure), there is no change at all.

My lines looks like:

amazon = bottlenose.Amazon(
    amazon_access_key,
    amazon_secret_key,
    amazon_assoc_key,
    Region=amazon_region_id,
    MaxQPS=0.9
)
response = amazon.ItemSearch( .... blah ...)

Anybody has a clue?
