[Madlug] Measuring website limit

Hi,

I have recently setup a VPS with nginx (static content) and apache +
mod_wsgi (for dynamic content served by django), and I am trying to figure
out how I can measure the max traffic that the server can handle.  I have
done some preliminary testing using ab (apache benchmarking tool) and it
shows about 75 requests per second for a very simple dynamic page (ab -n 400
-c 20 ...).  I am unable to translate that to a max number per month, does
anyone have any experience or ideas about how I can measure the max traffic
per month that we can handle with this setup?


Thanks,
Farhan
