So unless you're imgur, whose load has substantially to do with images?

In most of the stuff I've worked on, it was either a database or an analysis backend the requests were blocking in.

More power to 'em though, love stuff like this. :)

The project is flexible enough to provide support for all media types-- video is definitely where the majority of your savings will be coming from. For a first-time demo though, we decided to just transfer a small image.
