Hey y'all!

After the many incredible things Railway shipped in 2025, we're ready to kick off Q2 (April - June) with fresh energy and big dreams 
Our users are the reason we do what we do, and we would love to hear what's the top feature you want on Railway.
Last thread, we got to SSH, Tutorials, price cuts.

More granular usage calcs! From a recent conversation with support, my understanding of how pricing is calculated is as follows:We take metrics every 15s and then average them to get a minutely value. So if we capture the 14GB spike in the 5 seconds and assuming the rest of the time is idle at 1GB, they will be charged (14 + 1 + 1 + 1)/4 = 4.25GB * $0.000231 GB/min = $0.00098175 USD. The metrics aren't necesssarily taken at seconds 0, 15, 30, and 45 each minute.
For database and other "spiky load" use cases, it would be amazing if this could be applied more granularly (e.g. every second).
