Default What needs to handle 2500 users online at once

On 01/05 we had over 1,200 online at once and I expect around 2,500 on 02/06. There will be several times that day when post will spike to about 800 in about a 10 second span. Currently I have

Intel Xeon E3-1230 V2 3.3GHz
100 mbps Uplink
16 GB DDR3 Memory
1 TB RAID-1 Drives
10 TB Bandwidth

My current host is hostgator and we are getting around 230,000 pageviews a day. I expect over 500,000 on NSD.

When we had 1,200 online things got really slow and almost crashed. What are some suggestions and does anyone have any experience with vbulletin and amazon aws. I got a vanilla install up but had issues importing my database due to the mysql memory size on amazon RDS.

For those with experience is amazon the way to go or multiple servers? Also what about rackspace and how do they compare to amazon?

Are all of these actual human users, or mostly "Guests?" Eliminate most of the automated bandwidth leeches by blocking Baidu and other bad user agents. Use this Mod for that:

Ban Spiders by User Agent

Link to the 4.x.x version and some nice lists of bad actors to block, in the thread. Cut your leech traffic almost totally out.

No they are human. We do a pretty good job with the spiders.
