Odp: Load generator box spec update

If You use standard Polymix-4 workload You will need to use 4 x 2 boxes
(one pair can generate up to 500 req/s, according to max_host_load in
../workload/include/benches.pg). If your boxes are new and fast You can
increase max_host_load, let's say to 800 req/s, and use fewer boxes but
keep in mind that You can obtain not reliable results (perhaps due to
overloaded boxes).

Load generator box spec update

Hi all,
I'm just setting up a new test cycle on new cache hardware. I need to sort
out how many poly boxes to run. I'll have a number of HP DL380G4s to hand
(1 x 3Ghz Xeon, 8Gb RAM), and I estimate I'll need to generate up to 2000
HTTP ops/sec. Any idea how many I'll need?
Thanks!
