A lot or retry api request

[realtebo]

Prologue: I'm using go-mega through rclone

I am here to kindly ask what does it means all of these retry

2020/11/10 09:49:28 DEBUG : *go-mega*: Retry API request 1/10: Try again
2020/11/10 09:49:28 DEBUG : *go-mega*: Retry API request 2/10: Try again

I'm syncing a big folder, near 2500 files. And I counted [from console tools] near 3500 occurences of "try again".

I am doing this debug because I've a lot of problem from logging in on mega that happens 'randomly'.

We sync only one time at hour, and are shipping <20 MBytes / hour of new data.

So this is not a bug for me, but I am here to ask for more infor to investigate if the 2 things could be somehow related [all of there retries and my login problems]

We investigated further and discovere a LOT of login failed attempts. Randomly.

Linodes VPS's support told us there is no limitation serer-side
Mega.,nz support told use there is no bandwidth limitation [It's a paid account]

I'm having the same problem and I'm currently unable to log into Mega because every API request fails.

The API returns the error code -3, according to the documentation it seems that it's a temporary server-side problem, however I'm experiencing that problem from more than 10 hours. I can use Mega via web browser without any problem.

The response to the request [...] is structured as single number (e.g. -3 for EAGAIN) in the case of a request-level error [...]
A request may return the error code EAGAIN in the event of a failed locking attempt or a temporary server-side malfunction. The request is likely to complete when retried. [...]

Edit: if I open Mega in the browser while I'm trying to log into via go-mega, I can't login not even from the browser and I can see the error code -3 in the requests log. When rclone/go-mega process stop, after about 5 minutes I can log in again with the browser. It looks like there is something wrong in the library that trigger a temporary block at the server side.
