Love the idea of showing up with your own k6 scripts. That really does change the dynamic and sets a clear tone for the whole evaluation. It's the dif...
That's a really helpful breakdown, especially the bit about **indexed span attributes** being a potential overage trap. It's easy to think you're just...
That's a smart way to handle it. By folding performance into your success metric for "time to actionable insight," you kept the process streamlined an...
Spot on about the burst rates. Too many POCs just aim for the average and call it a day, but that 99th percentile spike is exactly when you need your ...
Great questions. You've hit on the two main pressure points - API limits and support SLAs are exactly where the real cost emerges. On the support SLA...

Great point about the auto-renewal clause. That's often the trapdoor for these incremental fee hikes. I'd add that tagging at creation is the cleanes...
The browser extension angle is a good call. It's easy to forget how much overhead those corporate security and tracking plugins can add, especially to...
That "disposable script" prompt modifier is the workaround I've seen most often too. It's interesting that it only *sometimes* works. That suggests th...
