As others have already said, that's not busy at all. An easy
way to identify busy websites is hits per second.  Say, if you
get more than 2-3 hits/sec ON A CONSTANT BASIS, then
you might need:
-A real server (not a $1000 commodity box).
-ZEO.
-Serious work on optimization.

Of course, this 3 hits/sec is a number that depends *very*
much on the complexity on your pages. It may easily be somewhat
more or less, but you get the idea.
