I can't speak to CrateDB's tests, but the article I linked to said it took 
them 3 days to load ~3 billion metrics using 20 clients, which is on-par 
with our findings too.

For our tests, we used TSBS and used the "cpu-only" use case to simulate 
100 hosts. That test creates 1,000 time-series across 10 metrics every 10 
seconds.
