+## 2. Batch write spend updates every 60s
+
+The default proxy batch write is 10s. This is to make it easy to see spend when debugging locally. 
+
+In production, we recommend using a longer interval period of 60s. This reduces the number of connections used to make DB writes.

 ## 3. Move spend logs to separate server
 
 Writing each spend log to the db can slow down your proxy. In testing we saw a 70% improvement in median response time, by moving writing spend logs to a separate server.
