As with most 'guestimates' of how many or how fast, the application mix has alot to do with this. The problem with the 2003 is that it does not have the floating point microcode feature, which greatly reduces your options.
You will have the most luck with open source applications like Samba, DNS, Sendmail, Apache and I;m sure some others. DB2 Connect will be slow, but will work and might be acceptable. DB2 UDB will certainly not perform very well. Stay away from anything that smells like Java, because from first hand experience I can tell you that you WILL be disappointed.
