Huh?

CPU load is generally down to things like transcoding... If you are 
switching just G.711 (a/ulaw) then CPU load is negligible in my experience.

We've seen Asterisk systems for tens of users that run on tiny embedded 
processors or the low power VIA C7 type CPUs.

I think it is more important to determine what level of reliability you 
need and engineer your server(s) around that. If you want "Five 9s" 
you'll need to buy the right hardware and probably duplicate it.
