Anecdotal datapoint: I have a machine with 2xE5520 (Xeon server processor from 2009) which does ~300k requests/s, and handles ~400Mbps of network traffic, but only using ~5% of the CPU.
It's been my experience that you will saturate your network way before you'll saturate your CPU on pretty much any current hardware.
