What exactly is dyno hour on Heroku?

I'm really confused by Heroku pricing.

What exactly is dyno hour?

Heroku is giving 750 dyno hours for free. For example my regular request will take 100ms to process.

So, this request will take 100ms from 750 free dyno hours?

From documentation:

"Heroku usage is computed from wall-clock time, not CPU time. This means that usage accumulates over time as long as dynos are enabled, regardless of traffic or activity." https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/usage-and-billing#computing-usage

750 hrs is enough to cover any single dyno for an entire month. Essentially "non-production" apps are free in that regard. (unless you have another non-web process running, like celery etc)
