Ok, another hard number:

www.mit.edu accepts about 14,000 unauthenticated httpd connections per
hour on a sparc 5, peak.

Given that, I'd say that a sparc 5 would probably be fine for your kdc,
and a sparc 20 would have spare cycles :-)

(I keep forgetting how fast computers are nowadays.  And I'm not even
that old :-)
