A Versatile Physical Server
- by Paul
How does one judge potential memory and processor needs for linux web servers? Specifically, given:
A Debian or Ubuntu OS
Running a web server (apache2), and
A database (MySQL), and
A DNS server (bind), and
Being used by up to 100 concurrent users, at some points each downloading high-resolution (0.5 to 1 MB) images via a web app.
How much should one budget in terms of RAM, type of processor(s), and number of cores?
Thanks!
