Running on a 1.7GHz P4 with 256MB RAM and 20GB HD. Running Apache2, PHP4, and Qmail (loaded from qmail toaster). So far so good.
Since I did a Server minimum install I ran into a bunch of dependencies when I tried to load Qmail but overall it was very smooth.
One issue that's been a burning problem for years is libmcrypt with PHP. I found a sourceforge project that addresses that issue, finally!

I'll let it burn in for a couple weeks and if all looks good I'll Upgrade from RH9 to CentOS on all 6 of my servers.
Thanks for the great work and I'll report back on my stability and load testing.

Also might want to check atmoic turtle's line of RPMs. Currently only does 3ES, as far as enterprise goes, but here they are:

He always builds the newest version of things, which isn't exactly in line with the purpose of enterprise, but they're good package none-the-less. Been using his RPMs for about a year.

Re: New 4.0 install
Loaded 4.0 on a Tyan S2505T dual P3 with 1GB RAM and a 3ware 6800 IDE RAID controller with 6x WD40GB drives setup as 2x RAID 1 (system) and 4x RAID10 (database). I ran into a couple issues all of which have answers online so I won't elaborate extensively.
The main problems I found is that 3dm software to monitor the RAID controller generates a constant error in /var/log/messages saying that it's down rev. There's no way around this for 6000 series 3ware cards. Also, I had to run restorecon on several modules to prevent boot errors.
Been running for 4 days with no critical problems. I really like being able to use RPMs. All of this lowers admin costs which is good for us small businesses. I'm going to build a Qmail server and a backup server next month.
