Also for network:
Since you are doing NAT, you have to maybe worry about a limit in your I/O
bus with network cards. What kind of network cards & drivers are you using?
Find out the rate of packets going through your VIP with ipvsadm -L --rate.
If the PPS is getting anywhere close to 20000 or 30000/s (probably not) you
better have good cards (64-bit) & drivers or it is going to be bad real soon
:). With NAPI & 64-bit you can go well above 100,000k.

PS - has anyone seen Ratz around?
