How did you arrive at this number? Every user has to hit keystone before making a request to any other service (unless they already have a token) and each service needs to authenticate that token. Any request that hits multiple services will hit keystone multiple times. Without caching, keystone is by far the busiest service in an openstack install. Caching should fix some of this, but I don't know that I would expect it to be two orders of magnitude less.
