Reality is that as soon as SSL web servers and SSL-capable web browsers have support for name-based virtual hosts, the number of IPv4 addresses required will drop. Right now, you need 1 IP address for 1 SSL site; SNI spec of SSL gets rid of that.my load balancer needs 16 ips for every million simultaneous connections, so does yours.
That is an accurate statement but sort of a side issue. I would hazard a guess that ~95% of publicly reachable (i.e. non-SSL-VPN) SSL certificate using servers would never see that amount of traffic. I am talking about the 5 or 10 IPv4 IPs you get with a $99/month dedicated server, so that you can setup 5 or 10 different clients with a shopping cart - Amazon and other large e-tailers have the ability to buy/work around any shortage or bottleneck.
