If anyone has been lamenting the loss of the bash-static package, this
evening i took the time to figure out how to create something that
works just as well. I peeked in the Makefile for bash on an older
version of OpenBSD to see how the static version differs. The
difference is when compiling

First, about hardware requirements.
What you're proposing is absolute overkill for such a small client load.
You won't need to upgrade the hardware :-)
About resource limits of _cyrus user and sysctl values, are there well
known values? Should I increase kern.maxfiles for example? I wouldn't

First, *don't* download source from the cvsweb website. That source
is handy for browsing, but you should be getting your code from a cvs
