Disable MAX_WRITE_OPERATIONS_PER_HOUR when developing


Is there any way to disable the MAX_WRITE_OPERATIONS_PER_HOUR setting for Chrome storage during development? I'm completely blocked right now because I hit the max while testing a new feature. It's really frustrating.


Solution

  • Use chrome.storage.local instead of chrome.storage.sync during development.

    Synchronized storage is rate-limited, because everything is sent to Google's servers. Local Chrome storage (not to be confused with localStorage) is only saved to the user's local file system and not throttled.
