title: iCloud GameKit 40 request / second limit questions
body: <p>I'll be straightforward:</p>
  <ol>
  <li><p>What does it count as a &quot;request&quot; ? in some posts I've read a request is a &quot;fetch&quot;, but on some others says 1 same operation of saving/updating might occur into several &quot;requests&quot;.</p>
  </li>
  <li><p>What does it mean the system &quot;throttles&quot; your requests? I've heard if you reach the limit of 40 req / second, the system &quot;throttles&quot; your requests.... what does exactly mean this? and which criteria does it use? I'm guessing if you get a peak for whatever reason of lets say 80 req/second but after that you go back to your average 20/second the system won't charge you? if it's that, which criteria does it use?</p>
  </li>
  <li><p>If for any reason you need more requests per second... you simply have to pay the penalty? or is there any way around it?</p>
  </li>
  </ol>
  <p>Thanks a lot in advance.</p>
