Thanks for your reply

Firstly, I don't claim to be a hardware guru, and my estimations are
purely based on brief conversations with the techs who run the servers.
So with that in mind... all the machines are dual xeon 2.8GHz with 2Gb
of memory.

With this setup, I would again speculate that you would would get much
more than 1.2 mill and still remain much below the load average of 3
(I keep 3 as the alarm point)

May Santa give your site get many more hits so that we can test out
this hypothesis :)

The decision to use 3+1 straight off the bat was mainly due to the need
for handling rapid expansion -- the site only launched 2 weeks ago. Add
to the mix the need for video transcoding and an element of the unknown
in this respect meant it was easier to start with more than less.

How is the MySQL setup on this? is it like what I speculated in a
message later on

1 Master + 3 Slaves ?

Cheers
Tarique
