You don't say what hardware you're planning on using.  So a definite
"maybe".  If your disk is fast enough and you have enough CPUs, you
should be able to handle it without too much trouble.  But if you're
planning on running it on an old Pentium box with 16 Meg of memory,
you'll have a rough time ;-)
