How are you using the workers? Is the JSON cached? Where do you get the JSON?

I'm using Workers as basically API gateway/smart load balancer to backend services that handle actual load (resource intensive data filtering). Most of the responses are not cached on Cloudflare level. Thing is that I was using Workers for about 4 years already with not issue at at all, I'm aware that I use lots of requests and bandwidth but I just wish I was contacted about mandatory upgrade before effectively turning my service down.

How much are you paying for the workers/month?

Why didn't you use the load-balancer service?

Speaking from experience, if you only need rudimentary L7 load balancing, then Cloudflare Workers is as good as it gets.

Per my estimate, probably between $600 to $2000 for Workers: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34639930
