We have a SAP production node which produces up to 320,000 print jobs a month? Will one CUPS server be able to handle the load? If not, say I have two CUPS server running in parallel, will both servers be enough to handle that load?

Both servers are running CUPS 1.1.23, RHEL ES 3.
Primary server:
  Xeon 2.7Ghz 8-processor
  4Gb RAM

Secondary server:
  Xeon 2.8Ghz 4-processor
  1.5Gb RAM

There will be a total of 2300 printer queues created but one client
will be generating at least 320,000 print jobs.

Thanks,
Angel
