     Those figures are pretty close to what we have on our
     (non-sympa) list server.

                         Number of lists:      743
             Total number of subscribers:   36,934
                     Total subscriptions:   82,787

     But then you write:

     Your server received 150K messages and sent out 1 million
     postings within 7 days?  Wow, that is surprisingly high
     compared to our site (a small public University).  We get
     about 60K messages and send out 18 million postings in a
     *YEAR*.  So far this year we've done:

     You must have quite a few very high traffic lists.

     I found your posting particularly interesting because I am
     also trying to determine the resources we will need to move
     from ListProc (a comparatively light-weight C application)
     to Sympa.
