We're scaled across multiple servers, so no in memory
What do download counts even mean for http://lib.rs ? I didn't think you served crates directly?

Based on the 366, I'm guessing it's an in memory cache of 1 year of (upstream) daily download counts. As you said, since we have multiple servers updating the counts we can't cache much in process (plus Heroku can terminate us before we can write data out).

That's tough. But maybe you could use a more compact format in the db? Daily (version_id, date) adds ~200K identical dates every day. It could be (version_id, week_number) with a downloads[7] column, for example.

No, I just use crates-io data dump for display and stats.
