I run about a dozen virtual machines on it, an apache server, mail,
shell servers. Might be up to around 50 people at a time. Some graphical,
some just simple ssh sessions. Web server averages about 8 hits/second.

Hi Robert,

Build them. I put together a i7-6850 based system with 128GB of RAM,
5 4gb drives arranged as a boot drive plus a RAID 10 array, for around $3k,
based on an Asus X99A motherboard and with adequate cooling I am able to
clock all six cores at 4.3 Ghz completely stable and almost at room temp.
How many sessions at the same time?
What does "top" say for the load?
Is all of the memory used? Does it swap?
With regards,
Paul

Hello,
I think about building a X2go server for about 30 sessions at the same
time with XFCE, Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice. Not sure about which
hardware to use.
I would say this:
4GB for the system
4GB for shared binaries like Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice
1GB for a user what I would give 4GB on a fat client.
2GB for a power-user what I would give 8GB on a fat client.
When I count on 5 powerusers and 25 normal users I would say 35GB + 8GB
=43GB.
Not sure about the shared binaries, is this "per processor"?
I think about a server with 2 processors. I think one processor is
enough, but it's not expensive to find a used one with 2 processors and
much memory.
I think about running it virtualized with Qemu/KVM/libvirt what also
will take some memory. I think 48 GB is a correct RAM size.
Please correct me when I am wrong!
I guess it will be possible to run a server with 16GB with 30 sessions,
but it will be "not nice". What is your experience?
With regards,
Paul van der Vlis
