Hi, Tom!

Practicality can't be assessed in the abstract. Generally, if you know
the task switching overhead, the typical and spike request processing
time, you can simulate when saturation of the processor will cause
queuing, and how long the delays will be.

Ideally you need to model all this based on some estimation of the size
of each request and the inter request arrival times and so forth. A
variety of queuing theory models could be applicable.

Alternatively, hammer the server with automated tools generating
requests and watch when it actually saturates.
