Unexpected POST requests in New Relic logs on Heroku running Parse-Server

[raytrask]

Describe your issue in as much detail as possible.

I am getting indeterministic response times in my parse-server running on heroku. Most transcations are at or below 100ms, but every so often the get into the 10s of seconds, making my users feel like the mobile app has locked up.

We added in New Relic and logging to find a table with very small requests times on average, but every so often I get a much longer response time of POSTS to the same table (HSEvent). I also see not slow queries in the mLab dashboard.

Funny thing is, my app does not do posts as far as I know. I even setup break points in the parse save methods and they did not get reached.

I asked a question in stack overflow, but as an afterthought felt maybe I should have come here. The questions is:

Let me know if it would be better to work on this thread or stack overflow.

Steps to reproduce

??? I don't know. I can't explain why we are seeing the posts.

Expected Results

Deterministic response times, mostly consistant.

Yeah, this is better suited for SO. I'm aware no one has answered your question there yet, but issues are best when they're about a specific, reproducible issue with the code.
