[Support #GTN-702792]: HW Recommendations

Jami and Bill,

Do you keep a running log of the activity/load on the system
so we know if this is typical?

This looks pretty much what we'd expect for a relay system...
As I mentioned before, you're just fine CPU wise.  As the data 
volumes/rates grow, you'll want to keep that data in the queue 
(and in memory). All of our relay systems have 16GB of memory 
(8-12GB queue) and we usually spend more on the memory than we 
do on the system itself.

I'd look to buy a system that can hold at least 16GB of memory,
and populate as much of it as you can as compared to upgrading 
CPU's to the fastest quad-core.

Let me know if this helps or you have other questions.
