CDN usage 3-4x after migrating to website tranlator from js-proxy-translator

Exactly when I migrated to the website translator (February 18th) from js-proxy-translator our CDN usage tripled. This has caused us to exceed the free limit for the first time ever.

This certainly feels like a bug with the new website translator, as there’s no way that just migrating to a new tool, would increase the traffic on our website.

There also seems to be a mismatch in the the reported requests. One says over 1M requests, while the others sum to under 700k.

Lastly, how is there no way to disable requests that would cause charges? Our project is free and open source, and we do not have the funding to pay for traffic usage (especially when it’s seemingly inaccurate usage).

Hi @ReenigneArcher :waving_hand:

We’re going to review this internally to better understand the increase in CDN requests after the migration to Website Translator and the difference between the totals shown in the usage section and the project statistics. I’ve shared the details with our team so they can take a closer look.

We’ll get back to you as soon as we have more information :folded_hands:
