I've encountered OpenVMS sites with that many log files from ftp 
operations, some with transaction-related files, sometimes outbound 
mail messages, all sorts of things.  (More than a few of these folks 
should probably switch tactics here, but... excuses are made.)  Ten 
thousand files is a little better than one a second, though most have 
traffic rates that aren't that smooth.

Having five and ten thousand active network connections in parallel, 
and having connection rates of five thousand network connections a 
second aren't particularly unusual in larger (usually non-OpenVMS) 
configurations.
