Wow, I wonder if it's location based. Mine was heavily situated in one location, whereas yours was perhaps global? So it was always prime time for someone? Here is a graph of my usage for the past week (note lows of 30-40 and highs of 650 odd):

A) I'm not sure "one location" is a city, country, or province.

B) Yes, it was global as we had offices from China to the EU.

C) Given the OP is handling 15 r/s, 150 r/s is not going to be pushing 500 mbps unless something is very poorly designed.

D) Even at spikes of 40x, it would still only be 600 r/s which is still quite doable with a commodity server.

The only serious difference is it was very large batches of requests (20 * SKUs) so people were fine with waiting a few minutes.
