Limit incoming data on websocket

[the-serious-programmer]

Our application heavily relies on:
https://github.com/bitvavo/node-bitvavo-api#book-subscription-with-local-copy

It would be awesome to have a configuration parameter that can limit the amount of data coming in, so that instead of 100+ bids and asks, for instance the top 10 for both can be returned on every book update. This to limit latency, network bandwith etc.

Did you found a way to achieve this?

@StefanBloemheuvel unfortunately not, this cannot be solved without work on the bitvavo back-end (as the back-end has to send less data to the client).

If you only need the best bid and ask you can use the ticker subscription. Otherwise I guess you are out of luck.
