[Asterisk-Users] Server Load/Capacity

I'm trying to figure out how much call load I can put on a Dual Xeon  
2.4 Ghz Asterisk server acting strictly as an IAX2 call director, as  
show in the diagram below.

The idea is that I have N number of gateway asterisk servers  
connected to the PSTN using T1 Digium boards. Then, I have M number  
of servers where my agents and/or telephone extensions (whether they  
are IAX or SIP hard/soft phones). What I'm trying to accomplish is  
put a server in between these two groups of machines which will  
simply be able to "intelligently" route calls in either direction.  
This "call director" server will only use IAX2 (ulaw) to minimize any  
transcoding and "alleviate" load.

Under this scenario, does anyone have any idea how many calls this  
"call director" server may be able to handle/direct?

Thanks,
Waldo
