The URL for your instance of Charlotte's Web, a load balancer application that delegates requests to a cluster of Charlotte workers.

The relative or absolute path to the folder where you'd like to store downloaded content for Collector. This path should typically be located on a network drive where instances of Collector running on multiple machines can access the drive in a local network. Also note that the path must end with a / slash.

This number is used to make sure that Collector doesn't make too many requests on any given domain in a short period of time. The value is in seconds and determines the minimum time between each request made to a single domain. Collector will exclude any download queue items that meet this criteria when finding the next item in queue.
