Hex runs on Heroku. I wonder how many dynos it uses. Any ideas?

Not sure what the current stats are but a year ago the maintainer tweeted some stats about it [0].

    hex.pm on single 512mb Heroku dyno. 
    250rpm, 
    request time 23ms 95% percentile, 
    43mb memory used, ~0.15 dyno load.
I suspect there's a lot more use these days given the growth of Elixir, and I'd be curious to see newer stats.

It still runs on a single 7$ hobby dyno. Package and registry downloads goes directly to our CDN so the dyno only gets traffic for the HTTP API and website.
