Err - simulate your application on some other hardware - a desktop PC is often fine as a starting point, and see when the following things saturate, and the overall application performance becomes unacceptable (e.g. latency or whatever is appropriate to measure your application performance): . CPU . RAM . disk . network bandwidth ... then do some rough calculations using: . The figures that you've just got from your benchmarks. . The approximate difference between your test system, and the system that you are thinking of buying. ... that should get you pretty close....
