Usage query
I have a Strapi project hosted with a postgres db on Railway. (Frontend on Vercel). It’s just basically a dummy app although fully functioning but gets no traffic other than when I very occasionally hit it. However last month I got charged around $15 and this month looking to be about $10…I’m on the hobby plan so $5 included. Having spoken to others I was under the impression that it wouldn’t go above $5 considering it’s just a hobby site with barely any traffic.
Is this normal, or could there be an issue here?
Obviously I’m slightly concerned as I might put clients on Railway and I’m very unsure as to how much it might cost in usage.
Love the service though, so would love to carry on using it

what's causing the costs?
Not sure, I guess that’s what I’m querying. What should I be seeing in the usage metrics? On the usage metrics for the last month the CPU stays at 0.0 with a spike to 0.1 a week or so ago. The RAM is constantly at 1.30 GB until about a week ago (exactly same time as the CPU spike) where it’s about 240MB constantly. I don’t really know what’s normal/what it should be
JavaScript using 1.3gb of memory isn't unheard of, but 240mb seems much more reasonable
unfortunately I don't have first hand experience with running strapi on railway, so you'd have to wait around until someone with that experience could shed some light on this question
Ok thanks
