Assuming you're talking about something like the Atom 330...

My guess is you will have plenty of horsepower for 25 phone sets -- 
probably even 25 simultaneous calls.

The 330 is dual-core and hyper-threaded so it shows up as 4 CPUs in "top."

Asterisk is multi-threaded and should distribute the workload. Another 
advantage is that if you have something CPU heavy like bzip2'ing your 
database dump or compiling Asterisk from source, there are still several 
"CPUs" available for Asterisk.
