Bandwidth isn't so much an issue in this case as
processor load.  Disk load we can handle by adding
disks.  Memory, likewise.  But for better or worse
(I'll leave my opinion at the door), we've got
Oracle and ColdFusion.  You really, really, really
*don't* want those two on the same box, with or
without the additional load represented by Mailman,
Apache, mod_php and MySQL.
