It really depends on the number of measures you include in each of your
API requests. Ceilometer does very little batching.

If you batch those measurements, you could achieve up to 120k measures/s
in Gnocchi already 2 years ago¹. Considering the various improvement we
did over that timeframe, you can likely go higher.

And since it scales horizontally, you can double the request handling by
adding another node. :)

I'll probably try to do some benchmark one of these days, but I don't
have proper hardware to do so for now. :)
