  • I don’t understand how a million tiny instances is supposed to scale better than a few big instances.

    Caching all the data from another instance is overhead. If you’re not serving that to enough people, your instance is going to create more traffic than it reduces.

    1-10 person instances can’t possibly help. Maybe 10,000 users on an instance is valuable for scaling.
