he hasn't built a complex system and had to refactor it in order to scale

You've heard of the C3 project?

I think it was a complex system, they spent a lot of time refactoring it to add features, and some anecdotes suggest that performance (so it could scale to all of Chrysler) was one of the major feature categories that they were working on — and kind of failed on, I think. And it's the project Beck's best known for.
