thats a lot of connections and processes.
4000 concurrent queries will be generating a massive IO workload, what

4000 sockets from clients making simulatneous queries will generate a
massive network workload.   what sort of networks are you using?

a single server with 12 CPU cores, no problem.

12 separate servers, you're going to have to resolve some very sticky
issues with transactional integrity of updates and conflict resolution.
