Yes I'm attracted to this conclusion also - which then asks the question what is currently the minimum CPU / RAM requirement for a 
backend (with no frontend) ?    While I haven't tried yet I expect a single core 2000 would be underutilised, presuming no 
commflagging is sought.  A 1000 or less also may still be fine?  Anyone?

Also the HDHomeruns I recall only use a 100M NIC and they stream TV3 fine using UDP with network rates upto 14mbps, according to 
their GUI.
