I was wondering if anyone here had any thoughts as to whether or not this
web server configuration would work.

Box:

Sun server running Solaris.
4 - 400 mhz CPU's
1 GB Ram
3 30 GB drives, each with their own controllers and (I believe at least) 64
MB cache for each disk.

We're already running our Oracle 8.0.3 database on this box with 10
concurrent users hitting the DB.   It is currently using up 200 MB of RAM.

We are considering running iPlanet 4.0 Web Server on this box as well.  The
choice of web server has been made, so that isn't really an option.  It's
either the iPlanet utilizing JSP & Servlets or we go back to doing ASP.

Once our project is finished we will have on average at most 30 more
concurrent users hitting both the web server and the Oracle database (i.e.
max 30 requests to the web server, possibly 40 requests to the database).
In the worst possible scenario we could have 200 more concurrent users
hitting the ws and db (very very unlikely).  It is safe to assume that all
requests would involve JSP and servlets, i.e. we don't have much static
HTML.

Okay, I know this was long, but does anyone think our machine can do it?
We're very willing to buy another 1GB of RAM.

I am pretty confident that our machine can do it, but this isn't necessarily
my area of expertise (I'm a developer, not a sys admin) and my butt's kind
of on the line on this one.

Thanks,

Mike
