Are there any rules of thumb for the amout of RAM for a FREEBSD server? 
 I know that wcarchive is loaded to handle 450 users. 

Are there guidelines for how much RAM is needed for each of the 
following?

	each ftp client
	cern hpptd
	each web client

	are the client just considered like any regular login?  How much 
memory is suggested per login?

I think that some type of guidelines should be included with 2.1.  If 
I get a thorough response, I'd be glad to do put collection together 
as a FAQ or a HMTL doc.
