Gotta admit, found this hilarious: "By the way, if you want to know what I think about this whole reddit experience - NOT BAD!"
Which further confirms that this whole AMA is a carefully crafted PR stunt.

>up-to-the-fraction-of-a-second updates. I don't think that's true. I believe the comment pages are cached for 1 min.
I've anecdotally noticed an increase in stale pages lately as well, which I would guess is from more aggressive caching. For example, new submissions used to show up instantly, but on popular subreddits may now take a few minutes to show up on the New tab.

The President of United States is doing a Reddit AMA and all you can do is predict disappointment ? Really? Why bother? If you're wrong, your comment will seem too negative and cynical (which it is). If you're right, well, that'd be disappointing, right? Comments like yours make me want to rename this site Hater News.
"In all honestly, no-one should expect anything else- the POTUS is not going to unveil new thoughts and strategies through Reddit." If understanding how the world works and telling others makes you a hater, then sign me up.
Essentially before and during when the war crimes (or whatever) are being committed, everyone hates the truth-tellers because they think they are wrong and they are challenging their worldview or whatever. And then afterwards, everyone hates the truth-tellers because they remind them that they were wrong. That's why you will never read an article about prominent Republicans coming forward and apologizing to Michael Moore or whatever.
For those who can't get access to the site, here are his answers so far. I hope you can deduce the questions, jeopardy style: I am Barack Obama, President of the United States -- AMA by PresidentObamain IAmA [+]PresidentObama[S] 4 points5 points6 points 2 minutes ago (0 children) [–]PresidentObama[S] 4 points5 points6 points 2 minutes ago It's hard - truthfully the main thing other than work is just making sure that…

Just want to chime in, it looks like Obama is heading out[1] after answering only ten questions. I think it's fair to call that disappointing when the thread had more than 12,000 comments. [1] http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/z1c9z/i_am_barack_obam...
Does this seem like it could be fake to anyone else? Could someone have simply hacked his twitter? He only posted it on the @BarackObama twitter. Not any of the other ones related to his campaing. Reddit didn't advertise this AT ALL. Most big celebrity AMAs are known for days. The photo of him is just him sitting in front of a laptop. There's no proof at all that he's doing an AMA. Reddit is going down HARD. I doubt…
Not definite proof but if someone hacked the POTUS's Twitter Account and posted a fake IAMA to reddit it would probably have been shut down by now.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk will do the same thing.
Beanstalk has nothing to do with the database, which is the point of contention. Spinning up more app servers only helps with serving signed in users.
