Bulk API vs Regular REST API Limits
Hi there,
I developed a test project to sync my DB with salesforce Users table with REST API. For this test I just had 5 users. I want to know how many users I can read within one request? what is the optimum number of records we can get per HTTP request in regular rest API?
How can I realize that Bulk API is better feature for me to use (considering I just need to work with User table in SF)
Appreciate your help
P.S Most links in Bulk API page doesn't work: e.g Auick Start and Sample Code https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Bulk_API

The REST API will return a maximum of 2000 records at a time (https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewSolution?id=000181883&language=en_US). If your query has more than that, then you need to GET the next set of records. You probably won't have a large number of users, so this may be ok for you. When you start getting query results of around 10,000 records, then I think you should use the bulk API. The bulk API (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_asynch.meta/api_asynch/asynch_api_concepts_limits.htm) lets you retrieve records one GB worth at a time.
