Linux bi-Xeon Dell servers, 100MB bandwidth. We have 4 haXe play servers running for one of our website : http://www.popotamo.com , a Scrabble-like multiplayer game. The servers are far from being pushed to their maximum, but since they also serve webpages we didn't want to have only one of them. At the time I'm talking the website displays 5600 connected players and 7800 started games.
