It's all cached data on firebase. We cache the results for 24 hours, and the API is hit enough that a large majority of the requests are just returning the cached result!
We cache all the api results, as they never change we can do that. So we only pay for functions that run - i.e. - the first time a function runs to return data, after that it is a cached result. So around $10USD a month.
