   FYI, I /do/ run all of those services you mentioned in a previous post here,   
   and they get hammered all day long (even with the filtering/throttling/temp   
   banning in place). I don't remember it has ever crashing due to those services   
   being overwhelmed or anything. A random bug or a segfault maybe, but that has   
   always been able to be found, addressed and fixed.   
      
   I just don't think Windows (Home/Pro) itself was ever built to be a server. On   
   the other hand, and not to seem like I'm shitting on Windows or anything, I   
   have seen, heard, and read about plenty of /actual/ Windows Server setups   
   running just fine. I imagine they probably take a bunch of the desktop   
   background tasks out of the equation, which could come in to play with hosting   
   a server.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
