> Comparatively speaking even compare them to the same CRUD app and DB, most are using 5 to 10x more servers with 1/2 to 1/5 of the traffic.
No doubt, but how large are those other CRUD app organizations? Do they have a staff that is 20x the size all trying to coordinate deployments on the same handful of servers? What are their opportunity costs? Is trimming down server expenses really their most valuable opportunity? No doubt that SO has a great Ops capability, but it's not the only variable at play.
