Another interesting adventure from the life of a : "Where do all these requests come from?"

These spikes come and go on a fairly steady rhythm (each ~60 minutes). I found this to be interesting, so I investigated which URLs are being requested the most during these spikes.

Turns out: It's the emojis. I don't mind as they're being returned early by Varnish, but why so much? 2.5 million times per 24 hours seems like _a lot_.

Two red lines mark the Mastodon 4.5 upgrade.
