OSCOMMERCE experts...question on server load

I have a site that I am throwing oscommerce on for ticket sales

here is the thing....the tickets go on sale 3 times a year and usually sell out in 6-8 minutes...we sell 400 at a time

the site will get approx 2000-3000 visitors in those 6-8 minutes

how stressfull will this be on my server for oscommerce?

any other options would be welcome to, i just know oscommerce pretty well but never worked on a site like this

you need powerfull servers ( an array .. ) and lots of memory. I presume they will enter data to purchase , so a powerfull stand-alone MySql server would be required.

That should be OK, but I would get a separate database server ( even real time mirrored for redundancy ).

I see .... It is just that everything will want to be done in such a limited window ;
- page serving
- ssl
- order taking
- database read/write
- codes back for approval

Could work without it... but you will know when you are in the middle of the action...

Or your host offer this:

no prices tough ...
