"10000 HTTP requests per minute" is not very meaningful without any other information. What is the average size of a response to a HTTP request?

If the response will always be a small, static text/HTML/XML file, fulfilling 10000 requests per minute would be easy. But if the responses are mostly >50M video files, not so easy.
