System reqierements

Hello
Could you tell if virtue mart is able to work with about 500 000 products?
I'm going to pay for the server Quad Xeon E3-1220 (4 × 3.10 GGz, 8GB operating memory, 4 × 500GB disc space). The number of products will increase gradually (so I'm going to  begin work on my VPS with 1200MGZ, 512MB operating memory and 15GB space of disc)
How will it work? Or will it be better to work with another software (not virtuemart).
There are about 75 000 hosts of visiting daily of the main competitor.
Thank you
