Notices from relays need more info. I was getting this from relay.nostr.band and I have to guess what the issue is.

error: too fast, slow down please

- am i making too many requests in a period of time? if so, whats the rate limit

- am i retrieving events on a subscription too fast? is that possible or is that controlled by the relay and i get an eose to determine end?

im guessing its an unpublished rate limit and have added an arbitrary delay. but i wish i knew more of whats going on. relay model is really bad for comms without a standard message protocol or status indication when one side has a policy the other is unaware of.

Ya, that's not very fun. The good news is the spec does have a lot more good stuff if people implement it. Nip11 limit descriptions, and messages per-reject with a specified 'reason'. Course it's up to the mods to set a reason, but it's there none the less (it does not reject silently).
