Save Page limitations. How many URLs can be saved per minute?
Error returns 'Save Page Now limits saving 15 URLs per minutes. Try waiting for 5 minutes and then try again.' but does not specify how many minutes 15 URLs can be saved in. Any answers to this?
Theorically, the limit is 15 URLs per minute, and whenever this limit is exceeded, the IP gets blocked for 5 minutes.

The limit can be changed by IA. Since the most recent change about half a year ago, the limit has been 6 URL submissions per minute for logged-in users and 3 URL submissions per minute for logged-out users. Exceeding this limit does not in and of itself cause an IP block.
The IP throttling is a separate limit which is probably based on the overall number of web requests (which is not necessarily the same as the number of submitted URLs), but I don't know what that limit is.
