- onion2k 6y agoThat doesn't give any indication of size at all. For a start "a server" isn't a standard size. That could be 20 Raspberry Pis or 20 machines equivalent to Amazon t2.2xlarge resources. Even if it was 20 Raspberry Pis, a site could handle tens of millions of transactions a year with a moderately well designed architecture. "servers" is not a useful metric.

- FDSGSG 6y agoOdds are most of that server capacity was used for DDoS protection, not for handling legitimate traffic.
- ClumsyPilot 6y agoFor all we know they could call a gaming desktop or NAS a 'server', or a switch or a router.
