No Sagnoma hardware here but all of my machines are either IBM x345's
(2x2.8GHz / 4GB RAM) or x346's (2x3.0GHz / 4GB RAM). Here's a vmstat
from over a 2 minute period from a gateway machine that had 6 active
calls (but Asterisk was not transcoding and not in the media path).
# vmstat 1 10000 | grep -v '100 0$'

The only time it wasn't 100% idle is right when vmstat started.
