FWIW, http://tsrvideo.ch/ (a video browser backed by a Solr index) runs on a mid-range 2006 Intel server (don't have the exact setup here, probably a dual Xeon 2GHz, 4GB RAM), with Linux + Apache httpd, and is coping very well with about 1.5 million Solr queries a month on average. BTW, I just had a look and the Solr instance there has been up since July 11th, not bad! I'd suggest estimating your peak load and running stress tests with something like ab (the httpd utility), JMeter or httpstone [1] to find out what happens to your index under peak load. You might use your current bandwidth stats to estimate how big your peaks are compared to the average load. -Bertrand [1] http://code.google.com/p/httpstone/source (some assembly required, that's a very simple java-based HTTP stress-test framework that I wrote)
