If anyone is (and I doubt anyone's running in production yet, but I could be 
wrong) I wouldn't mind knowing what kind of hardware they have backing it 
up.

Does slashcode use the same mega-mysql server that slashdot uses?

Nope, neither the old one nor the new one (and the old server
has several sites on it). When we are done with the latest
imports I can give a run down on the size of our DB. The machine
is a dual processor with 1 gig of RAM. Overkill to be honest.

I have one site that is running with bender at the moment
(combination between multiple systems though). It has a half
gig of memory and 2 200MHZ  pentium pros in it. It runs several
sites and has the DB running on it. Its performance with 5K of
page views a day is fine.

I can tell you though that my Sparc Classic with 72 megs of RAM
will technically run bender, but the pages take 6 seconds to 
send. Think low end pentium if you want to compare it to 
an intel box. It really is to slow. I have not tried loading
it on my one Pentium 120 in the house.

hmm i would assume that slashdot (even though they're not running bender
yet, as i hear?) gets more hits than that... am i wrong?

Quite a bit more. Slashcode will be moved to bender within the next
couple of days so we will be able to see how it handles it
(it peaks around 7K page views a day). When we also have use.perl.org
on the box we will have a better idea.
