Hi, I'm looking at buying a new production server, as soon as i mentioned mysql the Dell salesmen started pushing 3-4Gb of ram, i'm not sure if this is excessive though.

The OpenBSD server is 2.8Ghz and may have as many as 230 mysql sessions with 14 queries a second, the rest will be sleeping (ftp sessions maintain connection). The db directory is 80mb total, and the server is currently handling 14 requests/s with all queries being simple INSERT or SELECT's. The server also does low levels of firewall/ftp/http-perl/email. The old server is seems quite happy with 512mb.

Do you guys think 3-4Gb is fair or excessive for this workload? Of course i wouldn't mind some headspace to grow. Unfortunatly i don't expect 6x increase any time soon though :)

Thanks :)
Brad.
