The reference cost models 1 M messages of 1 KiB to a single consumer, with no batching, retries or free tiers. SQS and Cloudflare: send + receive + delete (3 M operations). QStash: 1 M HTTP attempts. Excludes consumer execution, transfer and base plans; it doesn't measure latency or guarantee exactly-once execution. Sources and methodology ↗
