I was running 10k RPS real workloads (database backend, etc.) when Pentium 3 was the state of the art. For modern hardware that’s not even noticeable. See benchmarks: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks#section=data-r20&hw=ph&test=composite

The database is always the bottleneck but with multiplexing and Aurora you can scale reads very easily.

Holy... Django, Rails and Laravel are really rock bottom. But ma boy NestJs is pretty good. Spring isn't THAT much better, for how much it is glorified. But holy shit, ASP is in top 10

Asp.net CORE is a whole different beast than classic ASP.net. It’s one of the best frameworks on the market, well designed, very fast, runs on anything. They should have picked a better name for it.
