Hello, I'm a python specialist with a vast experience in web apis/apps. Looking at your requirements I can implement a combination of asynchronous/non-synchronous architectures to boost your spiders crawl speed close to your hardware limitations. I cannot guarantee an exact performance metric as this will depend on server resources and network connectivity. I expect up to 100 fold improvement in speed. I offer all clients a one month warranty period to resolve any issues that may be discovered after project completion. Kind regards I look forward to hearing from you. I have recently built a working high speed spider and can implement a similar version for you very quickly

bee! You're asking for a vast improvement but I can certainly take a look. I'd be looking for ways to enable the crawler to run multiple tasks concurrently, that way you can make it run as fast as you like, just add more hardware!
