Hi @mwfiae, thanks for your report. I worked on that part of Steem-plus and I apparently did a smaaaaall mistake haha.  
I just want to clarify a point. When you say `It is also possible (by creating a few requests in parallel) that some of the points are missing or doubled in the database, depending on the exact moment this is attempted.`, it is actually not possible to double your points because we only proceed data created after the last entry of our database. We decided to execute the job once every hour at first not to overload our server, but we could have done it every 5 minutes. :)

Hello @mwfiae, 
This is a really good extensively written report. 
* The Criticality Is Critical,  It affects the resource monitoring majorly and can impact high unnecessary usage. 
* You proposed a solution, even if it was discarded it was a good initiative. you should try to inform the PO before starting on the fix that you're on it and get assigned to the issue. this resolves problems like 2 people working on the same project. 
* Other solutions could be to filter request based on `origin` header. 
the cronjob was the perfect solution. Thanks for including it in your report as well.

This report is very valuable and that's why I'll be staff-picking it from Bug-hunting category.
