RE: [Serusers] Scalability Question

Here is a little more insight into what I envision to be the core network. Hopefully this will help in the scalability question I'm desperate to get a better understanding of. I'm just not sure if I've under-engineered this, or over-engineered it - and what I can get rid of to save money or what more I need to spend.
