Hi Jappie, There is a GHC grafana with some statistics. Unfortunately the relevant dashboards seem to be broken at present. Hopefully someone on this list could fix it. See: https://grafana.gitlab.haskell.org/d/7T7oEMlMz/head-hackage-performance?orgId=2&viewPanel=3
There's also https://grafana.gitlab.haskell.org/d/RHebDhq7z/head-hackage-residency-profiling?orgId=2&refresh=30m, which is for residency information, but looking at the filters suggests that the peak amount of packages is around 900.
