The census batch geocoding API seems to be painfully slow on my end. Is that what you find as well? At the moment, I'm trying to geocode in groups of maybe 700 and it has already taken more than 5 min and I have yet to get a response. I've used the censusgeocode package as well, and that also takes so long that it is un-usable, in my opinion. Any suggestions as to how it could be sped up?
@@yongyanyue7165 I switched to geocoding through the ArcGis API and that was considerably faster. It does cost $ but if you setup the right kind of account and only geocode what is necessary, then it's pretty cost effective.

Hi there! I'm facing a similar issue, have you found any better ways to do such conversions? Thanks!
