I'd love to know how many users could be served off one of these boxes


You can do reasonable 1080p at 3Mbit with h.264, if these were live streams you could fit around 130k sessions on the machine. But this workload is prerecorded bulk data, I imagine the traffic is considerably spikier than in the live streaming case, perhaps reducing the max sessions (without performance loss) by 2-3x.
