could go either way.  With the effects of Python's GIL I'd expect a
multi-core server with database and game server on one box would be fine
until you hit a scaling limit and your server is eating a whole core.  At
 that point you need to develop a distributed application model and probably
use multiple servers.  If you hit that before you're running 200 users
recheck your business model, if you hit it before 20 users recheck your
 architecture.
