I have a developer that asked "how many transactions per second can Oracle handle?"

I would assume that the number of transactions depends on the size of the transactions, number of CPUs, memory, etc.

Is there a guideline to follow when guesstimating something like this, or is it just trial an error to find out whether it can handle the new load?  

I am running on Solaris 2.8, Oracle EE 8.1.7  

Thanks for any help?
