8 is probably too few to make it worth it. 13 would probably be enough – could get a 6 on 6 going.

HARDWAREREQUIREMENTS: CPU: Intel® Pentium® 4 2.8 GHz or AMD Athlon™ XP 2800+ processor (3GHz or higher for Windows Vista) RAM: 512MB RAM (768MB for Windows Vista) VIDEOCARD: 100% Windows compatible video card SOUNDCARD: 100% DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card
Software requirements are a bit odd. I’m sure the server can run on Linux…
SOFTWAREREQUIREMENTS:
Microsoft® Windows® XP/Vista (Windows 95/98/ME/2000 are unsupported)

Found this in the ETQW server readme.
