Blogger and web designer Dustin Curtis says he was told by a Twitter insider that Justin Bieber uses 3% of Twitter’s infrastructure, with “racks of servers” dedicated to him. He followed up: “Every time Bieber tweets, his messages have to be delivered to more than five million people who then endlessly retweet it. Apparently, his account receives more than 60 @-replies per second for a while after he tweets, which is something Twitter wasn’t originally designed to handle.”
