Vitor PamplonaandClaude Opus 5 fe2d7ef045 feat(relays): merge account metadata across accounts into one REQ
Account metadata was the largest single contributor to blowing a relay's
subscription cap: seven filters in a subscription, repeated once per logged-in
account. Every one of them is `authors`-keyed, so a relay that several accounts
read from can be asked about all of them by widening `authors` — the same shape
of merge the notification tail just took, and for the same reason.

The per-account `limit`s are summed rather than shared. These are mostly
replaceable events, so the limit is a safety bound rather than a page size, and
scaling it by the number of accounts leaves each one exactly the headroom it had
alone. That is the difference from gift wraps, which stay per-account because
their `limit` IS a page size over unsolicited content.

Measured on emulator-5554, four accounts, cold start, counting nos.lol's
`ERROR: too many concurrent REQs`: 13 before either merge, 11 after
notifications, 8 after this. The subscription count on that relay went from
24-26 to 23, against its cap of 20.

So the per-account multiplication is no longer the driver, and the remaining 23
are not account-level at all — they are the feed, channel and finder assemblers.
Cutting further means looking there, not at more merging.
