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 :)

Sure 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.

Not 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.
