Does Server Sent Events Traffic contribute to Heroku autoscaling?

Question

I have a NodeJS application running on Heroku that uses server sent events (SSE). In the Heroku documentation I saw:

The autoscaling algorithm does not include WebSocket traffic in its calculations.

I was curious if this was also the case for SSE traffic?

Looking at the heroku documentation yielded nothing.

Answer 1

Confirmed with Heroku support that is does count towards autoscaling.
