I deal with sites that do more than 3 million visitor per day. And I have
had to handle more than 5000 requests/sec to my MySQL servers. Money is not
in abundance for me to throw servers here and there. Every bit counts at
run time and that is what decides if you will need 3 servers to handle 3
million or more than 10 servers. I am talking about a real production
scenario. And I get my job because one of the things I do is get more for
the buck.
