Hi all,

I am planning to get VPS or dedicated box for site but i have no idea about UNIX (BSD) or Linux.

I would like to know how much load a web server can take, so that I can order dedicated server or linux vps server for my needs

thanks in advance

regards

Jo

Go for P4 or AMD CPU with 1GiB and SCSI hard disk. Once you got system/server setup apache/forum software and other stuff.

Then use ab tool to benchmarks your web server. Adding 1GiB RAM will improve performance ( http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-...eb-server.html )

Good luck
