yes, you trying to queue 1000000 requests before even starting them. This version keeps limited number of request (100):

  function do_1000000_req( cb )
  {
      num_active = 0;
      num_finished = 0;
      num_sheduled = 0;

      function shedule()
      {
         while (num_active < 100 && num_sheduled < 1000000) {
            num_active++;
            num_sheduled++;
            mypost(function() {
               num_active--;
               num_finished++;
               if (num_finished == 1000000)
               {
                  cb();
                  return;
               } else if (num_sheduled < 1000000)
                  shedule();
           });
         }
      }
  }

  do_1000000_req( function() {
      console.log('done!');
  });
