Y'know... that little "K" abbreviation on the end is a pretty important detail. I skimmed the article about three times, thinking to myself: "600 users... Really? Big deal."

It wouldn't hurt to actually emphasize "600,000" by explicitly expressing all of the zeroes.



"That little K abbreviation" is kind of a common thing... I'm not sure what your experience is, but in order to understand a lot of what gets discussed on the web in terms of performance, you'll need to improve your attention to detail.
