We run a small corporate-gateway install:

P-III 733 MHz with 256 MB, running:
RedHat 7.3 / sendmail / MailScanner / F-prot AV / SpamAssassin with BigEvil and ~100 
local rules

This easily keeps up with 10,000 messages per day.  We use MTA-level blocking of dead 
recipient addresses which eliminates 2000 messages a day with minimal overhead.  
Another 3000 are quarantined by SA.

We could probably triple the traffic before performance becomes an issue.  CPU usage 
typically runs at 20% or less.
