I was gonna ask the same thing today when i saw your post. If you think 6k is crazy, i got almost 32k!
I have a 1 page site thats not even launched yet (with me the only person testing). Also with nuxtjs!
Only 10-13 images (squooshed to below 100kb per image). No videos (all hosted on vimeo pro). All text content and data retrieved with a single API graphql query
And there was strange spike to almost maxing out the 50k on the free plan. I dont think its humanly possible that i myself could have made that many request in a day.
No. My best guess is, next.js tries to reload the page after an error (in dev mode)… perhaps I just left a tab open and it was refreshing itself through all my API calls without me realizing it.
Right now setting up caching of responses just so I hit the backend less.
