It sounds like it would require a lot of throughput to run so many transactions. How do they plan to scale that?

Excellent question. Here are some blog posts on the subject:

https://blog.ethereum.org/2014/10/21/scalability-part-2-hype...

https://github.com/vbuterin/scalability_paper/raw/master/sca... is the newest one. And here's a google doc modeling transaction throughput with that algo: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wyul_iIKZiAeUprqA2HP...
