one of the sites I'm involved in serves about 8 million pages a month, well
over half of them requiring a database connection (most of these will have
more than one query) and the site runs on a dual processor pentium III with
win2000 and SQL Server 7 - no problems. Just make sure you spend a lot of
time optimizing the server for performance and most importantly, stick a
load of RAM into it, at least 1 GB.
Nobody would recommend a single server config for a high traffic web site
if the company had money to burn, but who has these days?
