Sorry, no numbers in my answer but I can say how would I do. Try JMeter or a web-service like loadimpact.com to model the load on your website. At the same time in your server use some tools (from UNIX-top to zabbix or it can be included in your control panel) to measure the processor time and the memory needed.
Then try some tricks like PHP acceleration and caching and do the tests one more time. ----- Yury Katkov On Fri, Sep 7, 2012 at 1:36 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I know > https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_requirements... > > Let's say I have 20 medium sized wiki pages.
