I know this question is a bit like how long is a peace of string but I will 
ask it anyway :-)

The ape documentation claims that it can support 100,000+ clients

Assuming the application is one to one chat.

What sort of machine spec would be needed to support that work load?

Does scale improve with websockets vs long polling? I am assuming it does.

assuming a 1 gig connection.

how many users could you expect to handle with say

512MB
Single Core
SSD Disk
VPS

1G
Single Core
SSD Disk
VPS

2G
Dual Core (1 for system and other for APE)
SSD Disk
VPS

4G
Dual Core (1 for system and other for APE)
SSD Disk
VPS

so it goes on.

I am assuming that CPU speed and sufficient memory are key thruput

Any insights would be appreciated.
