Request volume scalability

If there are few requests, each request takes some average time t = tserver + tcloud + tnetwork
tserver = processing time spent on your server instance in your application instance
tcloud = processing time spent waiting for cloud interactions. 
tnetwork = time spent waiting for request to be transmitted and response received. 
tcloud and tnetwork can be considered constant 
(they have their own management mechanisms!)
