one raspberry pi per continent :p
e.g. I'm in a small rural village in southern france right now and I get 2GB down / 1GB up more or less with a 9ms speedtest ping (which is slow, it's often 2ms) - anyone from europe would get < 50ms ping notwithstanding the latency between them and their isp
by the time my website has, say, > 500k req/second I can definitely invest in, idk, some used 2015 i7 laptop to give myself a x10. For reference, 1M requests per second is Instagram in 2015, one of the most used websites in the world - by the time you're at that scale you've been bought by Facebook anyways.
