I agree, I have about 340 active domains, and my stats for may's webserver traffic was hits: 9,498,039 Outgoing Bytes: 58,937,127,164 Visitors: 225,193 Page Views 1,401,266
My machine is a P2 350 with 250 megs of ram. I am RARELY over .75 load during the day (peak time for us). I also run quite a few cgi's (mostly ANSI C).

One thing to consider is the amount of load. 300 domains * 300 visits / 86400 seconds in a day = 1.03 visits per second. For such a small load I doubt that you'll need much IO, memory, or CPU, unless it's all CGI-BIN stuff.
