Hi,
We have between 5 million and 10 million connections to our websites
daily. Our lvs machines are as such:
PIII600, 512 Mb memory, 4 Gb disk, Intel Express Pro 100s NIC
Seeing that a PIII600 can handle 100Mbits worth of lvs traffic (using DR),
I don't see a reason for a bigger machine.
If you use NAT, I can't help you.
