If you're dealing with Cloudflare and slow scraping, try using Scrapy + Scrapy-Splash. It handles JS rendering better than just Requests.
For proxies, check out Bright Data or Luminati—they’re pricey but work well for large-scale python web crawler projects.
Async *can* help, but tbh, if you’re new to it, stick with threading first (like concurrent.futures). Less headache, still faster than sequential requests.
Also, randomize your user-agents and throttle requests. Cloudflare hates bots that go brrrrr.
