I run my server on a 133 MHz Mandrake 8.1 computer with 128 MB RAM. I don't really notice much impact from the server, though it does take up more RAM per process than it probably should (about 17 MB for the server, 15 MB for each zone server). You're not going to realistically run more than 5-10 zone servers on a single computer. But that's where wonderful things like clustering and port forwarding come in. More than one machine for zone servers -- that's what Verant does. I think that this EMU should be really good at scaling. You can even put the database on a separate DB server. Gigabit networking between each of the servers. Dual Xeon processors with a gig of RAM on each box.... *drool*
Sorry, what were we talking about again?
