I've got a grossly overpowered box with a peak usage of about 20
requests/sec (1200 requests/minute), so I have never encountered its
maximum load. It doesn't even come close as far as I can tell. I
would guesstimate its maximum limit to be about 200 requests/sec based
solely on the average disk transactions/sec, which should be the most
limiting factor.
