I have a forum (Spanish BMW owners), with more that 2 million of posts and 30.000 members.
My setup for this is a Dual dual xeon 2.8, 2 gb of ram and ultra scsi disks with Fedora core 4.
I use php 4.4 compile by hand and eAccelerator (php cache), mysql 4.0.21 compiled with the intel c++ compiler (20% faster that with gcc), and many tweakings in tcp/ip stack, apache and php.
I can handle 1000 constants users within a load more higher off 1.4
If you need more that this, put a lighthttpd as image server, one server for database or memcached and another server for apache
Excuse my broken English
