    More likely is that the log streamer takes up some amount of resources and thus running it requires a baseline level of compute. But I doubt they spin up a small runner per-self-hosted runner, most likely some ruby workers (on distributed azure instances) are dedicated purely to streaming self-hosted runner logs to log consumers. I'm certainly not surprised that they tried to sneak in billing self-hosted runner minutes at some ratio to potentially recoup the costs here. 0: https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@3.21/admin/managing-github-actions-for-your-enterprise/getting-started-with-github-actions-for-your-enterprise/getting-started-with-github-actions-for-github-enterprise-server https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@3.21/admin/mana...
