Unfortunately it is. This is the first startup of Amethyst bandwidth usage before i even touch anything but checking the Relay section:

This happens when the relay has no `REQ` limit on `limit` filter.

Usually most relays are limiting to REQ with `limit` 100 events. So this thing does not seems impacting much on a single strfry relay.

But for a relay that does not has that limit, here is the hard consequences.

It's not only that. There is something else going on. I have to use paid relays without limits and it never gets over 10MB.

This relay is buggy. I am talking to you all this time and my max is 6MB on downloads.

Good point. But still found it somewhat heavy to have it load 2-4 MB of stuffs at first boot (Notably: 3G network speed)

I think you are exaggerating. Most non nostr apps do more than 2-4mb on first boot. Images alone will explode that amount. Even single webpages are in that range.
