Latency does increase with concurrency. Latency decreases with the number of keys, as long as they are less than the concurrency. If the number of keys is more than the concurrency, there is no additional benefit and latency remains flat.

Thanks, I didn't notice that the clients operate over the same key set, so I didn't think about the contention. It makes sense.
