I'm curious why the test needed so many router hosts:

512 shards, each with one Postgres primary each on an r8g.16xlarge

480 Neki routers, each on its own 8xlarge instance

That's ~250K queries/sec per router which seems lowish for this type of workload? The routers won't be doing very much (parse query, route it to proper shard?).
