My box has always been set at 1000Mbit in the US zone and sits at a steady
70 requests/sec (5-minute avg) or 82/sec (daily avg) with frequent bursts in
the 200-300/sec range.  I had a slow increase Oct-Dec as clients cached up
my ip and the new DNS settled in ... and it has been pretty constant
throughout December.
