Rate limits for authenticated requests are per user. This would be an excessive number of prometheus labels, so we only track the unauthorized limit.

I think this makes sense, and I'm down for dropping unnecessary prom metrics 👍
Just need to make CI happy.
Forgot to fix the tests for the rate limits. On it 👍 |

Should this be 60 instead of 5000?

It should be, but it's only used to generate docs. The values are ignored, but the labels are included.

So it is fine
Rate limits for authenticated requests are per user. This would be an excessive number of prometheus labels, so we only track the unauthorized limit.
The rate limit labels without a user label make no sense.
Closes: #10853
Unauthenticated Rate Limit
We used to hit the unauthenticated rate limit as our ValidateToken always required an external auth request. With #11830, we no longer waste an external auth request if we know the token is invalid.
Additionally, if we have an invalid token (say it was revoked), #11598 prevents us from constantly making an external auth request with the same invalid token in the "listen" loop. So when requiring a re authentication, we only trigger 1 request.
There is still improvement to be made, as an invalid token can trigger multiple requests if the user hits the same endpoint multiple times. The caching of "invalid" is only in the scope of 1 request atm. We could either persist the cached "invalid" to the db, or delete the link when we get a 401 back?
