Is this about the audio streams? I imagine that if at any time there are a million video streams happening, and zoom wanted to sneak into 1% of them, it would pretty much need 10000 vCPUs of compute to do that? The current tech scales affordably because only the encoded packets get transmitted between callers (via "selective forwarding units") without needing server-side re-encoding?
edit: That was for video streams. For audio streams, certainly the cpus cost is lower - about 10%.
