Dave--

There is a new Domino for AS/400 capacity planning redbook at
www.redbooks.ibm.com.

FWIW, and I suspect it's very little, I've IBMers say the rule of thumb for
maximum threshold CPU utilization for installing Domino for AS/400 is 60%.
Anything over that, and a dedicated box is recommended. Be careful, though,
with _any_ rule of thumb that anyone gives on you Domino. There are sooooooo
many variables for appropriate capacity planning (thus the need for a 20+
page capacity planning document and a new redbook!).

Given your CPU utilitization, I'd bet you're a good candidate for at least
starting with Domino on the production box. Also, given your long term
expectations and hops, I'd bet you're also a good candidate for ultimately
needed a dedicated Domino server before it's all said and done.
