Hello Dennis >>If the load goes up, then queries are sent to the cloud at a certain point. My advice is to do load balancing between local and cloud. Your local system seems to be capable as it is a dedicated host. Another option is to do indexing in local and sync it with cloud. Cloud will be only used for search.
Hope it helps.
