In our benchmarks we were only able to push 35 MB/s on small instances. So the actual requests per seconds were dependent on the object size we were pushing. The limit was always ~35 MB/s. Our typical HTML pages were around 50 to 70 KB, so we couldn’t reach the desired requests per second as our instance was at its bandwidth limit.

Usually when one instance hits its resource limits you load balance multiple ones. HAProxy is a fine example for a very robust TCP/HTTP load balancer. The problem is though, that it will not increase your bandwidth as all your traffic has to go through this one HAProxy instance. So even when you load balance multiple instances, each one is capable of pushing ~35 MB/s (—> ~350 MB/s with 10 small instances), the bottleneck will still be at ~35 MB/s (aka the load balancer).
