Hardware used to run LVS

["Pierre-Luc Brunet" <pierre@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

I'm thinking about setting up an LVS server. The box I would use would
have two dual Xeon 3.2 ghz cpus and 2 gigs of ram. It would also have 2
gig Ethernet cards.

 

Now... I'm just wondering... am I using hardware that's way too
powerful? I have to handle something around 1250 to 2000 requests per
second.

 

Any advise would be useful. Thanks!

 

NOTE: The machine I plan on using is a spare machine I have... I'm just
not sure if it's just way too powerful to use for what I need.
