Lies programmers believe about scaling:
- if 1 process can handle X requests, then 2 processes can handle 2x requests
- well, 2x requests with 2 processes is possible if there's more than 1 CPU core
- 2x reqs with 2 procs is possible with more than 1 CPU core and plenty of RAM
- uh...and there's plenty of disk space?
- oh, oh, right, and if there's no shared services
- something, something Kubernetes
- ...this can't be this hard
- I'll have time to figure it out later
