I wouldn't be so dismissive of 71M rps. At around 100 bytes per packet, that's ~70 Gbps minimum, only on requests. It's quite the volume of traffic, you'd need

I wouldn't be so dismissive of 71M rps. At around 100 bytes per packet, that's ~70 Gbps minimum, only on requests. It's quite the volume of traffic, you'd need quite a bit of cores, good parsing code and good core and memory distribution. It isn't impossible but it isn't trivial either. Edit: I misunderstood the comment and thought about "ingestion" and not "generation"
