It's difficult to trigger though (I can't reproduce with your NL service).  Bizarre.  But I have definitely seen 9+ GetMap requests for the same service/layer.

Sometimes it starts of with just one WMS request, and after that after a zoom-action all pan actions do fire requests heavily.

I was actually looking into this issue:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/41504

Which starts of with TIME parameters, but after some non-200 responses 'loose' the TIME-parameter....

So that is why I started to try to understand this heavy hitting...
