Hanna, Don't even think about using Cygwin on a production environment. The threading works horrible and you'll lose a lot of messages even under moderate load.
I'd recommend you to use an enterprise-grade Linux distro on decent hardware. My favorite is CentOS (a free RHEL clone built from sources and with the same stability). As an example, we are handling 150-200K messages daily, 15 SMPP connections and even 3 VPN links on a Celeron 1.6 Ghz w/512 Mb RAM and we never have a load issue. I think we could easily double that figures and still be fine. Hope it helps.
