Scalability

React launches a single-process share-nothing server, so you can instance several stacks in a single machine, depending on the number of avilable cores, before scale-out adding more hardware. The cpu and memory consumption will remain almost lineal. Balance your load between your stacks and everything will be run like a charm!, _(*5)

Also, remember to bind every stack to a different port or you will face some nice port collision messages!, _(*6)
