I’m trying to get an idea of how much throughput a single Lemmy node can handle along with a max # of users per instance. Does Lemmy.World provide specs on the hardware they use to host the instance or how many simultaneous current and active users a single node can handle?

I think you'll find people willing to help if you jump into the Lemmy Matrix chat for admins. You should find it in the Lemmy Matrix space: https://matrix.to/#/#lemmy-space:matrix.org

The admin support general chat is probably a good place.

There are Lemmy.world admins around but also plenty of admins of instances of all sizes.

I'm pretty sure @ruud@lemmy.world has said before what he uses. I thought back in the day it was publicly listed with the expenses, but I couldn't find it.

The most recent update I found was here: https://lemmy.world/post/75556

But it could definitely be old information, I'd take the other commenter's advice and ask in the admin channel to be sure.
