We regularly do over 360,000 page views (sustaining about 3-4mbit)
with a few light weight single 2.4GHz P4's w/ 1GB of memory. We have
five web servers behind that an NFS server for docroots/configs/PHP
sessions and a couple of dual opteron servers for DB traffic.
Load on our LVS machines *never* goes above 0.3. Load usually sits in
the 0.00 and 0.02 range. I can't imagine needing a dual proc machine
for LVS traffic. I know a site that was sustaining close to 80mbit
without much hassle to the LVS machines and those were dual PIII
700MHz machines.

Gents,
I have a new cluster to build for our single web application.
Web app is running php/mysql in the background.
Would really like to hear what everyone has to say about
hardware requirements for the loadbalancer. The environment will
be NAT, which naturally adds more strain on the balancer. Would
you say that a dual P4, with 2GB ram would do the job for 100K
concurrent connections? Or should we look at something like Alteon
or Cisco?
What are your expreriences? :)
THANKS GUYS!
PS also in #linux-ha, lets chat :)
