50000 people per day is ‘large customer’ territory? That’s less than a request per second.

You're missing the point. Their scale (in number of records and queries) is a better fit for provisioned capacity than pay-as-you-go in the context of billing.

The exact small/large label doesn't matter, nor does the requests-per-second.

Would you mind sharing your thought process to get from `daily_users` to `reqs_per_sec`? I'm playing with some estimations of `concurrent_users` for a basic website, and I'd be quite interested in the breakdown.
let's think step by step:

24hrs * 60mins * 60secs = 86400

86400 < 50000
