Ben - The spatial data is very small but we do have lot of attribute data
(weather,live stock etc.) which might run to around 100 mb.

In my view this should be sufficient for light use and small datasets with a
single GeoServer instance. GeoServer is pretty efficient. It is not possible
to say for sure without knowing the size of your datasets and the number of
concurrent requests you hope to support.
For Java web applications, RAM is a major issue. CPU can also be an issue if
you have response-time requirements. Increasing the RAM of a virtual server
is typically a straightforward procedure. The advantage of virtual servers
is that you can provision a modest server and increase resources as
required. There are other bottlenecks, such as the database.
For our production deployments with many GeoServer servlets configured for
app-schema (the biggest bloatware GeoServer has to offer), we use around 2GB
RAM and run tomcat6 with (for example) -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m. But
this is an extreme case.
Kind regards,
Ben.

not heavy. Can anyone advise if the above configuration is enough or will
this be a bottleneck for performance of the application? Please advise.
Thanks.
