The hierarchy model will not scale because then the high level ones have to
handle the sum of all messages from the lower level ones.  However simply
having many and having the client pick one at random will work. Second, once
we have tenant partitioning implemented, we can give tenants different names
... this is what salesforce does for example (our server is
na9.salesforce.com) and they use that to do updates / downtime etc. at
different times. That address of course can resolve to multiple IPs which
then load balance those set of tenants.

Anyway, we just need lots of users now to test all this stuff out :).
