SSL peer shut down by Dropbox
We are doing scale testing of our application,which makes a lot of API calls to dropbox from AWS.
Previously we hit the rate limit exceeded and now we get peer shut down by dropbox when trying to download the file.
We would like to know is there any throttling based on IP.Below is the error stack trace:

The Dropbox API doesn't block by IP address or limit requests like this. Any rate limited requests will receive an explicit 429 or 503 response.
Does this happen consistently? If not, perhaps it only happens if/when your network connection is getting exhausted? Or do you have any software (e.g., anti-virus, firewall, proxy, etc.) that may be interfering with these connections?
