Yet another thing to bum me out today.. but I do have to say.. Those sysadmins at the NSA certianly know how to scale! with GBHQ and Newzealand doing "full Takes" (probably Canada, austirallia, and the US too (who are we kidding)) That is a mind numbing amount of traffic to sort, direct, process, store., etc. Kudos on their tech skills. To bad they lack any scrupals (Snowden excluded from that scrupals statement). Seriously tho.. if you have a big startup and are having scaling problems.. go poach some NSA talent. Just make sure they aren't backdooring you while they help you scale.
