You will likely not need more than a simple server platform. Robust systems are
not expected for lvs. You should spend money on redundant disk obviously, but
lvs is NOT process intensive. It is nothing more than router platform with
hooks. Stuff comes in and goes out. It does not process.
Again. I do about 250m/month on a 1g with 512. I did not load test it lately,
but when I did nothing choked but the web servers.
As for spending more money on hardware, don't bother. If you have a spending
fetish, I can give you my work address :)

Subject: Re: Hardware requirements for an LVS director
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.

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.
