        I have mine running on the 2.50$ server.

        Have you locked it down to only your IP address or is it open to the internet? What have you done to secure the server?

        Mine's open. I have several people who use it from all over.

                        This is crazy. 6 devices at home only on the network for about 7 hours:

                          Smartphones and Tablets can query a lot of blocks because of apps.

                            Do you have an Amazon Echo or Echo Dot?
                            Because the single Dot I have is responsible for most of this.

                              I do not have a dot or echo. The 6 clients are 4 cell phones the Pi-Hole and my Mac.

                                            gave my echo dot a DHCP reservation and rebooted it yesterday. It has not built back up to the crazy levels of phoning home yet.

                                            But in only 24 hours it is already the top client again.
                                            From the top down.
