Maximum Simultaneous Connections 11,656,238
Current max sockets connections on an EC2 host is 250K. This means we'll
need approx. 46 servers to handle the long term max sim. connections.

This seems to be a lot of servers (for 500M users).
It seems unrealistic to consider that 500M users will use Loop imho.
Shouldn't we base this on the number of weekly active users maybe ?
At the beginning of the project, when we were setting up parameters
around what the architecture should be designed for, 500M was the
top-line number I was instructed to use. Not that we expect to have this
many ever -- it would make us the second-largest telecom operator in the
world -- but if the architecture cannot scale beyond this number, we
consider that an acceptable limitation.
The important thing, from a mid-term perspective, is that we need to be
able to scale to more than one server if we get 11M or 12M users; and
the design very much takes this into account, by allowing scaling across
multiple servers.
