I think peak Christmas time shopping was a couple million per hour back in 2006.

I know we used to contrast that to million per minute (or second) kinds of outages that NYC financial firms could have (along with the SEC escorting you out in handcuffs if you really screwed up).

Yeah, but it's been 15 years. Amazon traffic has probably grown since then, most likely a lot.

Do you think that might have been why I specifically cited the year in my comment?
