We control the user base and currently have about ::: 600 users that ::: will be continuously using the system. Each user is ::: expected to initiate a ::: cf hit once every 20 seconds on average. We are estimating ::: 9 hour days for ::: each user so approximately 180,000 cf related hits in an ::: hour during peak ::: times or 1,620,000 in a day. ::: ::: I'm thinking we are going to start with 2 web servers ::: (Netscape I-Planet) ::: and 2 cf servers.
