Excessive queries to google servers?

[kevinlekiller]

Hello, I installed this addon yesterday, I was just looking at pihole and noticed a massive amount of queries from the the pi with libreelec on it (~10 DNS queries per second) 270k+ queries in ~12 hours, I uninstalled the addon and the queries stopped.

(2:00 is a little while after I installed the addon, the hours of 6:00 to 9:00 kodi was playing videos)

I haven't done any debugging, but looking at the source ;

There should be a sleep before this continue.

If the server continuously returns a response other than 200 (like if the server return 429 Too Many Requests for example) this will cause high CPU usage and tons of requests.

Not related to the issue, but adding a else with a break 2 or return here wouldn't let the for loop go all the way through to save a bit of cpu time:
