It might be a good idea to do some tuning of the system (mostly network) for apps with lots of concurrent connections.

This is mostly important for the portal instance:
net.ipv4.tcp_rfc1337 = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65535

maybe a few more options?

it looks like tcp_tw_reuse only matters for connections initiated by the server, so from portal to backend nodes, and doesn't really do much for connections to clients connecting to portal.
