10.000 requests per second?

I find it a bit hard to believe that you can do
a) TCP setup / maintenance
b) compliant HTTP parsing / generation
c) compliant XML parsing / generation
d) XML-RPC dispatch
e) actual work
f) misc (logging etc)
in 100ns on either G4 or P4.

Most servers probably can't even do 1ms per request, though this is  
in the category "I could believe that" :-).

But it would really be necessary to know about the actual request/ 
response (size, contents, type of client and server, etc).
