What are "Other" requests and how are they counted?

This doesn’t make sense. A short debug session on localhost amounted to 3781 requests being sent.

This is in no way, or form sustainable at all, especially for product use.

Is there any reason for this?

Hello,

The reason for this is most likely GA4 _set_cookie hits that we presently attribute to Other (going to change soon). If you are on paid plan - you can check the logs to understand what requests are those.

Please advise your Stape container id so that we can take a look too.

Regards,

Dan
