Last year we benchmarked a Mac mini running Mac OS X (client) with
Apache 2+. The mini was easily able to handle 1000 hits per second
(using Apache bench with 32 simultaneous connections requesting a 2K
file).
A 2K file is a very small file. Since most web sites use graphics,
and even have html pages of much greater length than 2K, the analysis
of just 2K file transfers is rather pointless. A good analysis needs
to access transfers of various file sizes, and a mix. Most analysts
should aware of this. The value of the above study is dubious at best.
