Is there an existing issue for this?

How do you use Sentry?

Sentry Saas (sentry.io)

Which SDK are you using?

@sentry/browser

SDK Version

9.8 (now 9.12)

Framework Version

No response

Link to Sentry event

No response

Reproduction Example/SDK Setup

Steps to Reproduce

After upgrading @sentry/nuxt from 9.5 to 9.8 on March 26, 2025 at 1:54 PM, the customer noticed a large spike in spans reported to Sentry, despite having no changes to their tracesSampleRate (which is set to 0.001). Reviewing the changelog didn’t reveal any obvious reasons for this increase.

They deployed the update on 3/26/2025 at 1:54 PM. Since then, they upgraded to the latest version 4/9/2025, 2:38 PM UTC and they haven’t seen any changes in the stats in Sentry (they did disable Sentry from our production application though, so that’s the reason for the drop of events in the end of the graph.)

Expected Result

The incoming span count should have stayed roughly the same after the upgrade

Actual Result

The incoming span count increased

                How do you use Sentry?

                Steps to Reproduce
                After upgrading @sentry/nuxt from 9.5 to 9.8 on March 26, 2025 at 1:54 PM, the customer noticed a large spike in spans reported to Sentry, despite having no changes to their tracesSampleRate (which is set to 0.001). Reviewing the changelog didn’t reveal any obvious reasons for this increase.
                They deployed the update on 3/26/2025 at 1:54 PM. Since then, they upgraded to the latest version 4/9/2025, 2:38 PM UTC and they haven’t seen any changes in the stats in Sentry (they did disable Sentry from our production application though, so that’s the reason for the drop of events in the end of the graph.)
                Expected Result
                The incoming span count should have stayed roughly the same after the upgrade
                Actual Result
                The incoming span count increased
