Comment on Hardware is Expensive, Programmers are Cheapparent

Yeah, I was about to mention that. 4M a day is about 50/sec; if it's nothing but static pages you could serve that on a Pentium 1 without breaking a sweat. I've been giving away P4s recently, so their value is effectively zero - they can probably do it at under 5% too.

The problem is obviously when you're not serving static pages.
