For sites depending on scripts, even if they heavily cache pages, i allways recommend going dedicated and not virtual, as it sucks to move stuff over and often leaves ya with errors and stuff that you need to fix.

btw im in no means fluid14.com support or anything, st0ned or zeroquest could prolly answer your question better, but from an experienced webmasters pov id say go dedicated ;)

I'd want to test the script in a shared/virtual environment before installing it on a dedicated server with a live site, that's why I'm wondering what the minimum server requirements are.
