But thats not even the top 5 strain on github, their main issue is the forced adoption of Azure. I can guarantee you that about 99% of repos are still cold, as in very few pulls and no pushes and that hasn't changed in 3 months. Storage itself doesn't add that much strain on the system if the data is accessed rarely.
