we use a Gauntlet (at work not at FreeBSD.org) to support
telnet, ftp, and http for ~1500 people.  its a 586-90 w/ 64MB

yesterday's usage:
	ftp inbound	 188MB
	httpd inbound	 854MB
	nntp inbound	3176MB		(not a typo)

the box is busy.  it does *not* swap.  swapping will kill you
outbound usages is not significant.
