Out of curiosity, do you have (and want to share) stats about requests per second? It's always nice to know these things for future reference.
No worries if not :)
- DorkyPup 7mo agoSure thing! I don't have the exact instantaneous peak since Cloudflare groups historical data by the hour on the free tier, but the peak 60 minutes last night saw 70,100 requests. That averages out to about 20 requests per second sustained over the hour. Wish I could be more granular but hope that helps a little.
- firefoxd 7mo agoNot the author, but last year I wrote about my experience being on #1 on HN [0]. I created a visualization of the requests hitting my server. [0]: https://idiallo.com/blog/surviving-the-hug-of-death https://idiallo.com/blog/surviving-the-hug-of-death
- slashtab 7mo agoIn Brave browser on Android device, the visualisation media(?) is blacked out. just wanted to give you a heads up.
- firefoxd 7mo agoThanks for letting me know. It seems like when Brave is set to aggressively block tracking, it also blocks the canvas since it could be used for fingerprinting a device. I'll see if an avg version is viable in the future.
- efilife 7mo agoVery cool post! I enjoyed it a lot! Do you have any more backend insights like this on your blog? I'd happily read those. Btw. was the writing assisted by AI or is it all you?
