[Freeswitch-users] Is Anyone Using Google TTS?

I have to wonder if Google thinks 10-20 lookups per second from a single
client is a "light/medium" load. That's 36K - 72K lookups per hour. If I
were you I would tcpdump the traffic and see what Google is "really" sending
back. I doubt that Google cares about the distinction between a browser and
other types of clients.
