I run my site on two servers - both Dual Core 2.4 GHz/4 MB Cache/1066 MHz FSB with 4 GB RAM each. Webserver is running RAID0 (2 - 74 GB 10 K SATA drives), mysql server just has a 250 GB SATA drive. I have had my servers optimized over at vb.com in the Server Configuration forum. After playing with the Request Interval setting to see if it makes a difference because of that mod_security error I was getting (it didn't - I'm still not sure what that is all about), I have left it at 3000 which is default. My server loads average about .30-.40. I really think every site is going to have to play with the settings themselves. Maybe put something in the first post about how if you have high server loads, then it is best to decrease the Thread Idle Time and User Idle Time and increase the Request Interval. Sometimes it is best to spell that out instead of just tell them they may play with the settings cuz not everyone can figure out if you should increase or decrease them.
