What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that.

We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.
