Hardware for 1000 threads

The hardware specifications required for optimal performance depend on various factors beyond the number of threads. For instance, the size of your contact lists, whether you are sending messages to segments or lists, the number of triggers in action, and the number of segments created, among others. If I were to assist you in running one hundred (100) threads, I would recommend a machine with over 50 cores and 128GB of RAM to ensure optimal speed. However, it is possible to achieve 100 threads on smaller machines with specifications such as 8GB RAM and 8 cores. Nevertheless, it is essential to note that utilizing threads without sufficient server resources would serve no purpose.
 
Thanks. I would be sending to a list of about 50k. No segments would be sent anything. There would only be a single trigger that started a drip sequence sending an email once every day to those who were sent the original message.

Do you know what HW would work for this?
 
For such a small list, why would you need that many threads? To complete the campaign instantly? The best way is to try it on your environment and resize it if required. e.g., start with a 16GB 8 cores server and check how it goes.
 
I have 600 smtps and I need to use threading to connect to as many smtps as possible at a time to send the message…so not instantly but as close to instantly as I can get it.
 
Ok, I would still advise you to try with a lower specs server and resize it based on your own evaluation.
