I'm quite confused by Request Units, and trying to predict how many would be used by queries/operations.
I launched a test cluster, and the RUs are continuously increasing without me having connected to the cluster yet. At this rate of RU climb, the cluster would use over 8mil of the available 10mil RUs in a month without me touching it.
Coming from AWS, one of the most difficult aspects of using Aurora is guessing how many I/Os will be used for different workloads. It would be a shame to introduce this complexity for CockroachDB Serverless, especially if the RUs are impacted by internal cluster operations that aren't initiated by the user.
