There's no such thing as "requests per second" generally. It's requests per second for a specific workload.

So, whether Node can do 4-5k rps with "hello world" doesn't matter much. It's the same engine that needs to also do the further processing for each fuller request.

My understanding is that they hand just off the payload to another queueing mechanism. So it just returns ACK and done.
