I have an HTTP server in AWS on an instance with 4 cores and 8g of memory. 
The server is not processing anything, just replying with 500.

I have another machine in AWS issuing POST requests with Vegeta. 



These are my results:

My questions is if it's normal to have those wait times for over 1k req/s 
considering the server is not even reaching 50% of it's processing power?
