My api canister suddenly began consuming cycles at an elevated rate. It can consume 2T cycles within a span of 20 - 30 minutes depending on how many calls I make.
Once the cycles balance falls below the freezing threshold, the canister freezes where I then unfreeze it by lowering the freezing threshold and after doing so, my canister’s cycles balance returns to the level it was at before beginning to decline.
What would be causing this behavior? The canister only began to do this today. It began abruptly and without me making any changing to the code that the canister has been running for the last several weeks.
Could this be an issue related to degraded performance in the subnet that the canister lives on?
