In our Typesense v29.0 cluster, we’re observing something unexpected in our active monitoring dashboards: The total_requests_per_second metric is consistently higher than search_requests_per_second, even though the workload is mostly read/search only. We’ve verified that write/import/delete traffic is minimal or zero. Is this expected behavior? Just trying to understand what exactly is being measured so we can adjust our alerts accordingly. Thanks in advance!

Hey Diego, What is the frequency that you are pinging /metrics and /stats? The total requests per second will count any kind of request being sent to your Typesense, while write, imports and searches are specific to those operations.
