True, there is that.
I'm mostly concerned with cyrus keeping up with the load -- probably a

That should be no problem. Cyrus is relatively lightweight on CPU,
so its probably just a question of having enough network buffers
to keep the connections live. I'd recommend the skiplist backend
instead of db4 as well.
