Throttling

[cjmielke]

Is there a way to throttle the error reporting?

This plugin is working great for me, but I did find that on one particular page on my site, with some browsers, an old D3 library was producing many errors per second. With sentry enabled, the users browser would crash, I think because it was queuing up too many async requests. With sentry disabled, the client script would run just find (despite the errors in the console)

Ive noticed 'shouldSendCallback' ... maybe I could do something like logging the timestamp of every error report and block sending if its less than a second?

shouldSendCallback would work here, but we could also introduce a maxErrors config option or something that could reset every URL change (e.g. for single page apps).

I just found this older issue that had the same problems, and offers an implementation for those curious :

Sampling is already a thing now. MaxEvents is discussed here #767
