Hi. it depends on what sort of recording we're referring to; If we are talking about audio tracks, or, soft synths/virtual instruments that use wave streaming etc. the latter is where your processor and ram as well as hd rpm really become important.
Are you a voiceover user by the way? If so, the current versions of logic are not accessible. Pro tools is accessible for audio, but not for midi. For example, the event list editor is not accessible with vo. Hopefully that will be addressed in a future update.

I would suspect even mundane hardware today could handle all but the most extreme cases.
