  no, it is very wimpy in comparison.  it is enough for me
and i'm acclimated to it where it isn't a challenge at all
unless i've not had any for a month or longer (very rare
i would go that long as i probably use some every other day).

  the Scoville units of sriracha might get up to 5k or so.
some of the super hots get into the millions.
