Accessing Airport Lounges at Night for Early Morning Flights

Whats the current situation guys?
I heard the lounges are heavily packed nowadays?
Last visit was in Delhi T3 and it was 30% occupied. There was no queue at entry (around 6 AM). Queue started building up post 7:30 but it was never more than 10 min of wait time
There's a new Rupay lounge (near gate 41). You can access it, if you find queue on the first one.

Have done this twice at Delhi Lounge. If lounge is not packed, no body bother 2-3 hrs restrictions.
Accessed lounge last month. Stayed in for bit more than 3.5 hrs.
As airport is 300Km from my place, I keep 3-4 hrs of buffer time and often reach in time.
But I'm planning 6hours early
I have done 4+ hrs early checkin with AI & Indigo in Delhi airport. 6 hrs seems bit too early.
If you don't have any check-in luggage, you can do a self check-in & boarding pass and clear security.

Yes I'm also skeptical about the same, 6 hours is too much I understand
Moreover I'll have a check in luggage for sure hence am thinking twice
