This is also limited by the bandwidth you have - if you have an adsl connection usually downstream is higher than up stream, but serving pages go mostly upstream. How much work will the server do to generate pages? If everything is dynamic and you have a badly coded site it costs. You can get much efficiency with good code and/or apache proxy, or a squid proxy. I bought a mini-itx with 1Ghz Via chip and 256MB ram, 60GB IDE disk. Should I buy a new system today I would go for a fanless slower version. It serves just fine, not only web pages but also mail, database, ldap, dns, dhcp, imap as well as being firewall/router for the local network. It seems that most resources are consumed by the smtp server blocking spam. It's also reasonable cheap, around 400 euros, and consumes only around 30W.
