For example:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/373188

> Wikipedia seems to be 30000 to 70000 [requests] per second spread over 300 servers

So 2k is not unusual for bigger news sites, that may or may not employ a (few) rails team(s).

That’s only 100-250rps per server, that’s really not very hard in any framework.

Financial exchanges are doing 100,000rps of transactions per sever. That’s hard.
