+The name tier does almost all of the work. A recording MBID is exact when it

+Lidarr rarely pick the same one: on a real library, two thirds of scrobbles
+carry a recording id and barely a twentieth of them join on it. The report
+counts how many carried an id and matched on name anyway, which is the measure
+of that disagreement.
+
+So the normalisation is the load-bearing part, because the two sides disagree in
 predictable ways. It folds case and accents, drops guest credits (`Yellowcard
 feat. Tay Jardine` against a tag of `Yellowcard`), strips a trailing

+### Talking to Lidarr
+
+Indexing is two requests per artist, and more when the album fallback fires. On
+a large library that is thousands of requests in a few minutes. `urllib` opens a
+new TCP connection and performs a new DNS lookup for every one of them, which is
+enough to exhaust a container's resolver and produce `[Errno -3] Try again` on
+everything at once. The client therefore holds one connection open per host and
+resolves once.
+
+Transient failures — a dropped connection, a resolver hiccup, `429`, `502`,
+`503`, `504` — are retried with a backoff. An HTTP `500` is not: it is an
+unhandled exception inside Lidarr's own serialisation and will be raised again
+identically. That distinction also decides whether a failure is worth
+investigating; a library-wide outage is not probed artist by artist, because
+doing so multiplies the load that caused it.
+
+A local address is preferable to a public hostname here. It removes DNS, the
+reverse proxy and its timeouts from a path that needs none of them.
+
 Tracks and files have no unfiltered endpoint — Lidarr rejects a call with no
 filter — so they stay per artist. If one artist cannot be served, that artist is
 skipped and the run continues, but the count is recorded and the coverage report
