Within the WebSocket API documentation, there are some simple examples of sending batch requests. These work. However, when sending batches of greater than a certain amount, the WebSocket channel disconnects. Through my tests, I seem to be able to request for a batch size of about 145. However, it is not always consistent. Most times it succeeds, sometimes not. When the batch gets beyond 150 items, it consistently causes a disconnect in the channel.
The batch I'm using contains both valid and invalid symbols. When you submit a batch, a status message is returned from the server which acknowledges the receipt of your request. Despite the status message saying:
Processed 175 total items from Batch Request. 175 Ok.
Doesn`t seem to make a difference. The connection will ultimately close. As a further test, I prepared my application to break my requests into smaller batches. For example, if I have 175 items as my total, I tried to submit 7 consecutive batches containing 25 items in each. This didn't make a difference. It is unclear from this behavior whether it is the size of the batch or whether a batch of requests all at once causes the disconnect. The behavior seems to indicate the latter.
The documentation makes no mention of the size limitation of the size of the batch. In addition, if there is a size limitation, I would expect a friendlier response that my channel being disconnected.
