Official statement
Google retries pages that return 500 errors. If the errors persist, Google slows down the crawling of the entire site. If 500 errors continue, Google eventually deindexes those URLs. A 500 error rate exceeding 1% is regarded as problematic and can trigger a slowdown in crawling.

Google peut désindexer les URLs concernées après plusieurs tentatives de réessai.
Un taux d'erreurs 500 inférieur à 1% est-il acceptable ?
