Web Server

• 64G RAM with 10G link handles 10000 apache requests per second [1]. This appears to handle 120k concurrent users on the wiki if they edit once per minute.
• 8GB RAM/100Mbps Bandwidth: 150 Apache Requests/Sec, 300 NGINX Requests/Sec, 500 LS Requests/Sec.
  • This is a cheap home server. That can still handle 10M+ web hits per day.
• 8 Cores CPU/32GB RAM/1Gbps Bandwidth: 2000 Apache Requests/Sec, 2500 NGINX Requests/Sec, 7000 LS Requests/Sec (Minimum requirements for Shared Hosting Servers)
  • This is cheap for example on Hetzner $50. 2000 requests per second still means 178M hits per 24 hrs!
• For serving, if hard drive reads 100MB/s [2] - then you can load
