Hi,
Horms has tested LVS with 3,000,000 connections.
Please could list the documentation sources that you have read as I'd be
very interested.

I assume you're talking about specifications for the
director.
o SMP doesn't help (see HOWTO)
o the director is a router only (with slightly unusual
rules). All it's doing is routing. If your proposed hardware
can handle the network throughput, that's all that's
involved. You only need enough memory to run the OS and
handle the connections. I don't remember how many
bytes/connection but at 0.5M connections, that would only be
a few MBytes of memory
