S3 does a lot of under the hood optimisation. e.g. Create a brand new bucket, leave it cold for a while, and start throwing 100 PUT requests a second at it. This is way less than the advertised 3500, but they'll have scaled the allocated resources down so much you'll get some TooManyRequests errors.
