are maximum Limit values documented somewhere? (lemmy.ml)

The Limit property is just a number, but it is different for different API endpoints. I'd like to have a list of the different values so i can easily stay within the max for each endpoint. Are the values documented somewhere? From the official js-client docs site, not even a given endpoint documents its maximum.

I don't think they're documented anywhere. I resorted to just trying out the performance limits.

For posts I recommend going with 10 per page and loading the rest on demand.
For Comments try to only load a couple per request and then do a bunch of chained requests
