If this is just about load balancing, then they could probably get better performance from haproxy, right? Anyone should be able to exceed 200 req/s with haproxy. In fact, you should be able to get around double that or more.
The point is the title is useless. It tells you almost nothing. That blog is a joke.
Well it is average req/s so peak should be much higher, and they probably can average much more than what they are doing now in case of spikes and other such things.
