What's an "operation" in this context? Reading a boolean value? Incrementing a counter? Loading a 100kb document?

That question is spot on.

We knew already that mongo is quite fast, so why throw this useless figure into the room without any context?

"operation" is updates+inserts+reads+deletes+database commands, in ~1:1:10:1:1 ratio (IIRC).

I don't know what the exact operations were, it was supposed to simulate a real-life web app distribution of requests.
