Would be cool to see some logs on server load, it's one thing to claim "scale to thousands of requests per second" it's another to show the logs of a €4 VPS doing it. I don't doubt it, when I did a similar experiment with golang I never noticed any real issues (aside from a misconfiguration at the proxy requiring a min size on the SSE response) but it would still be neat to see the logs/active users.

Agreed! I have a WIP article in which I describe in the setup in more detail. I’ll also include load testing benchmarks as part of it. The key to reaching high scale is keeping things simple, and there’s really very little that the app is doing. Swoole and Redis are doing the heavy lifting, and they’re both heavily optimised for scale out-of-the-box.
