| // Rate limit ensures a function is never called more than every [rate]ms | |
| // Unlike underscore's _.throttle function, function calls are queued so that | |
| // requests are never lost and simply deferred until some other time | |
| // | |
| // Parameters | |
| // * func - function to rate limit | |
| // * rate - minimum time to wait between function calls | |
| // * async - if async is true, we won't wait (rate) for the function to complete before queueing the next request |
