The author was pretty courteous in the method he used to log the data IMO.

1) He only connected to one of the 'MMO' servers instead of multiple instances

2) Only established 1 long-living (Websocket) connection which is basically like having 1 (idle) player on the server. At the rate that other players were connecting, he likely added little to no real load
