Last time I tried the micro's they were mostly starving on I/O.
Quite possibly his webserver wasn't doing much of that?
Also "tens of thousands" of requests is not really a big number anymore. Nginx will happily serve a couple thousand per second even from a micro (until it gets choked by the EC2 resource beancounting).
- rkalla 15y agomoe that's a good point, if he's got all the pages statically cached and all the graphical assets on S3, all nginx would need to do is serve back relatively small TXT files which even on the micro would be trivial.
