Topic: How many users do you use in your hardware

[albatroz]

I was thinking that it would be great that we could share the configurations in hardware that we are using for handling an X number of users.

This list would serve as a guide for people planning new installations.

For instance the list could start like this:

Pentium 4 - 2Ghz clone with 512MB RAM, 60 mailboxes, performance/ user experience (8/10)

Pentium 3 - 1Ghz clone with 260MB RAM, 60 mailboxes, performance/ user experience (6/10)

This list could also include brand servers, as a way of unofficial certified hardware list.
