Can you help me with my capacity planning?

I wanted to figure out what are the minimum hardware requirements for running 8 smooth thin clients with Ubuntu and LTSP. The thin clients need to be able to run a web browser to access a webapp (apache, mysql and django) hosted locally in the same server.

How much RAM do i need? cpu?

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

Thanks!

You do that through testing. And be forewarned, the new versions of the browsers chew up a lot of RAM.

I've been deploying Ubuntu 9.10 servers for a few years and 8G RAM was fine for those for 10 users running Tbird 2, Firefox 3.x, and OpenOffice. 4G won't even reliably run those apps for 2 people without swapping now.
