I'm sorry, but this is one of the silliest nit picks ive ever seen on this site. Of course 1 million rps and 3TB/s isn't coming from a single host. 3 TB/s is far beyond the throughput of any network I've ever seen, considered or thought of, short of maybe a data center (and I don't work in that domain). 1.3 million requests per second is far beyond the capacity of pretty much any hardware available right now.

The second paragraph explains the argument. Seems spot on and relevant to me.

The point is, it's not Rails that is scaling here.
