How many of these, http://cyberbunker.com/web/special-offer.php, are required to host a  exchange like cryptsy / btc-e ?

That's like asking how long is a piece of string.

It depends which one you're talking about. It depends what time of day. It depends how much media attention Bitcoin has. It depends if the price is moving up or down quickly.

Also, that's not a cheap setup at all. In fact, you're getting totally ripped off. I have a poewredge 1850 right next to me at the moment. You can pick them up second hand with same spec as described for £30. You can get collocation in a datacenter for like £50 a month. That combined is going to cost around £650 a year.
