High Number of Function Invocations Without a Label (Next.js 15.0.3 with @netlify/plugin-nextjs 5.9.2)

Support
1

For my website https://boardvsgame.com/ I’m using Next.js 15.0.3 with the @netlify/plugin-nextjs 5.9.2 plugin for my site hosted on Netlify. While reviewing the function metrics for the past 24 hours, I noticed an unusual pattern:

  • 300 invocations are attributed to the Next.js Server Handler, which seems normal.
  • 45,000 invocations are logged under a row in the metrics table that has no label, and I cannot click on it to get more information.

The site uses Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) with the revalidation period set to 1 week.

I first deployed the site on December 16th, and this pattern of excessively high invocations for the unlabeled entry has been consistent since then.

The site has only one page and receives very few daily visits, so I’m struggling to understand the cause of these excessive function invocations.

Questions:

  1. What could be causing this high number of invocations for the unlabeled entry?
  2. How can I debug this issue further to identify the root cause?

Thank you for your help!
