We do 10-14 million page views, which is 35,995,306 requests, last month. We have dual 3.0GHz P4's with a GB of RAM. Average load is 0.00. I'd be more than comfortable saying that you could do 100,000,000 requests a month with the same hardware. Probably more. I know of a site that does 30 million page views with a couple of dual PIII 750MHz servers with little to no load.

We do 33mil pages, 88mil hits, 500gb of data per month on a 2ghz celeron with 512mb of ram. In addition to lvs running in DR mode, it runs snort, keepalived, a small firewall, and a couple of other things. It generally sits at 7% cpu.

LVS in DR mode has been 0 problems so far (over a year at this point). The realservers and database servers haven't been so nice.

anyone else have any input?

i mean, for example - how many millions of connections per day, and
concurrent connections could an athlon64 2800 handle? an opteron
1.8ghz? 512, 1, 2 gig RAM? dual processors?

still wanting to hear some specifics so i can sleep easier at night
knowing i'm making the right hardware selection...

thanks in advance.
