Quite a few people are doing a million metrics/minute. This is rather
easy.

We recently moved to a new server with 16 SSDs in a RAID-10
configuration and 24 cores. It's currently doing 300k on a single
carbon-cache with a load under 1. I have no doubt this will scale to
many millions of metrics/minute by adding one or more local relays
distributing across a pool of carbon-caches. You can extract quite a bit
of performance out of a server by systematically  shifting the
bottleneck back and forth between CPU (carbon-relays) and IO (carbon-
caches) until you find a happy balance.
