Current CREST/XML API Rate Limits? Where are they located?

I'm returning after some time off, and wow, I am absolutely loving the new CREST API.

Seriously, good work!

That said, while I fully intend to abuse them for my own ends, I want to keep the abuse on the up and up. For those who might misconstrue my phrasing, no ill intent here, just a programmer who intends to try and use them to the fullest and not share my work with others where it would benefit me more to keep some things to myself. I live in Jita, so I'm sure you'll understand. Things that don't strip me of an edge, I don't mind sharing to some extent.

In the information at https://developers.eveonline.com/resource/resources is says to, "Obey the posted rate limits, especially true for the XML API as that requires us to manually un-ban you, which will take more time."

The only problem is, I've tried several search terms around the forums, and I haven't seen any posted limits mentioned since 2014, with links to https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/EVE_API?_ga=1.219139225.106603631.1462976798#Rate_Limits

The most I've found in regards to CREST is the limits are 'much higher' than the previous XML limits.

Since the only real documentation left on the eveonline side is the license agreement, https://developers.eveonline.com/resource/license-agreement doesn't mention limits either.

Since obeying the 'posted limits' is integral to using them, can I get this one in black and white?

Also, for those looking for them a few years from now, provided they find my post here, is there a home for them with evelopedia's retirement?

As far as I remember:
150req/s for public endpoints (I don't know if authed endpoints have different rate limits)
20 concurrent connections

These data are (only?) on the forum, somewhere ^^', or at least, didn't find them anywhere else too
