API Quota Management Program
The following controls are recommended to avoid the free quota limitations of the Gemini API affecting usage:
- Batch processing mechanism: Split a large batch of tasks into smaller batches of no more than 15 articles at a time, to be executed at 2-hour intervals. This can be done by modifying the
batch_process.pyincreasetime.sleep(7200)Realization of automatic intervals. - quota monitoring: Set up usage alerts in the Google AI Studio dashboard to automatically pause the task when the daily usage reaches 80%. Simple Python monitoring script calls can be written
google.generativeai.get_usage()API. - Alternative Programs: Automatically switch to the project's built-in T5-small local summary model when the primary API is overrun (needs to be installed in advance)
transformerslibrary), which is of slightly lesser quality but ensures continuity of service. - caching system: Create a SQLite cache database of processed paper URLs to avoid consuming quotas by repeatedly requesting the same content.
In case of emergency, you can apply for multiple Google accounts to distribute the use, and load balancing can be achieved by rotating the API key.
