But it does 8,000,000 operations per second! http://www.snailinaturtleneck.com/blog/2010/05/05/with-a-nam...

(Sorry, possibly excessive snark. That said, I think that blog post is a good example of one of this pastebin author's points: at least historically, benchmark numbers have been a big focus for Mongo developers.)

According to the link, that's 320k operations per server, which means that it handles 8 million operations per second with 25 servers.

I don't think it's a stretch to say that any database that has 25 servers should be able to handle at least 8 million operations a second.
