The problem are not the 10000 users + but the question how often you are
willing to upgrade the server (and how you get support if you need it).
Red Hat does not "guarantee" the security and bug fixes, but the
community including Red Hat will make them available. De facto it will
be the same in the short term, but what about the future? Fixes for a
Fedora release will be available about 3 months after the next release
(with 2-3 releases planned per year). So you have to update about 1-2
times a year.
